Since buying the car the steering wheel has always been off, Id say around 1oclock clockwise, I thought it would be tracking, so got it done. It needed doing and does feel better, however the steering wheel is still in the same place!!
Any thoughts on this, how would the steering wheel be off even thought the tracking has been done? can it be straightened to you think? Im guessing not as easy as it used to be in the old days of undoing the nut in the middle
first of all tracking alone on the front wheels is not good enough , you are unable to line up the front wheels to the vehicle centre line without doing a 4 wheel alignment , this process automatically straightens the steeing wheel .
