How to replace front upper control arms on AUDI A5 (G1), A4 (B8) and Q5 (G1) / DIY / ASMR

This video is how to replace, repair, install or fix worn out, broken or damaged upper control arms on AUDI A5, S5, A4, S4 and Q5.
This job is not hard if pinch bolt is not stuck. In my case pinch bolt stuck inside and it was not easy to remove it.
All the torque specs are in a video.

Thank you for watching!

I recently bought a 2009 A5 with 87k miles. I am aware the front shock need replace at time of purhase. Considering replacing those 2 control arms same time.
May i ask what mileage is your can and what symptoms you experiene with these bad bushing. Just dont want to replace the arms if they many years life left:)

Can you provide me with the link to where you got the control arms? I’m assuming it’s the same type as on an A4 b8?
