To be prepared for the coming winter, it's time to take a look at the steering and check for wear - before the commercial vehicle breaks down. "Safety-relevant parts don't have to be expensive," says Auger's corporate headquarters.

As a manufacturer, Auger Autoteile GmbH from Cologne offers a wide range of steering parts, both for older and new commercial vehicles: for example, for the new 2016 S and R series models from Scania, via the Mercedes Actros II (MP4), Atego III, Arocs and Antos, the DAF LF6/XF6, the Iveco Stralis Euro 6, the TGS and TGX series from MAN, plus the T, C, K and D series from Renault and the Volvo FH4/FM4 models. Auger says it can supply all types of vans, from the Mercedes Sprinter to the Renault Mascott and Iveco Daily. Steering parts for buses are also part of the product range. Here the spare part specialists from Cologne call as examples the B-series of Volvo, the Citaro, Neoplan and the O-series.

Among other things, the portfolio includes wishbones, control arms, push rods, tie rods, tie rod ends, support joints, bushings, bearings, servo pumps, steering cylinders, cardan shafts and many other parts. Much of it is available as a complete repair kit, according to Auger, with all the individual parts needed for quick assembly. To ensure that the time advantage is not cancelled out by long distances, Auger delivers overnight from its central warehouse in Cologne.
