Classic Audi Steering Rack

The 812422065D steering rack is a mechanical component of the front steering system that converts steering input into lateral movement of the steering linkage and front wheels.

A worn steering rack may contribute to:

• Excessive steering play
• Loose or imprecise steering
• Abnormal steering response
• Uneven steering feel
• Wear or damage to internal steering components

Replacing a worn rack with the correct original-equipment specification can help maintain the intended steering geometry and operation of a classic Audi.

Vehicle Fitment

Potential applications may include compatible:

• Audi 80 B2 / Type 81
• Audi 90 B2 / Type 81
• Audi Coupe B2
• Audi UrQuattro / UrQ
• Certain Volkswagen Passat applications
• Approximately 1982–1988

Because steering racks can vary between models and drivetrain configurations, the above applications should be treated as potential fitment only.

Important Fitment Information

Please verify the following before purchase:

• OEM part number: 812422065D
• Additional reference: 7881955118
• Vehicle model
• Model year
• B2 / Type 81 configuration

Part-number matching is strongly recommended. Do not rely solely on the vehicle model or year when purchasing a steering rack.

UrQuattro / Classic Audi Fitment

The UrQuattro and other classic Audi B2 models can have specific steering and chassis configurations. If this rack is being purchased for a UrQuattro restoration, compare the original rack and both reference numbers carefully before ordering.

For Volkswagen applications, verify the exact VW part number and steering configuration before assuming compatibility.

Condition

This is a genuine used Audi OE/OEM steering rack.

As a pre-owned classic mechanical component, it may show normal signs of previous use, including cosmetic marks, surface wear, age-related discoloration, or light corrosion.

Please inspect the product photographs carefully and compare the physical configuration with the original rack before ordering.

Professional inspection is recommended before installation, particularly for a steering component that has been stored for an extended period.

Installation & Safety

Professional installation is strongly recommended.

The steering system is safety-critical. Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic familiar with classic Audi steering systems.

After installation, the technician should:

• Check all rack mounting points.
• Inspect steering boots and tie-rod connections.
• Check steering linkage components.
• Verify steering movement and free play.
• Confirm correct steering-wheel centering.
• Inspect for worn or damaged related components.
• Perform a professional wheel alignment.

The vehicle should not be driven until the steering system has been correctly installed, inspected, and tested.
