Just a few thoughts..

a)Is your top mount on the n/s in good order ? i.e. Does it sit the same as the offside when viewed from under the bonnet?

b)Has there been any recent dismantle and rebuild of your front suspension during which componentry may have inadvertently assembled in correctly?

C) Has there been any accident or impact damage putting geometry out?

Cars of old used to adjust caster with shim washers of varying thickness between the leading edges of the hub carrier and the strut lower housing. I don't think our P3 platform has such luxury.
