Offcentre steering wheel
Discussion
I would say that is step no.2 Stig. As they said that the car runs true.
First,you need to determine that the wheel is centre of rack travel. Just make sure you have equal turns lock 2 lock from the point where the wheels of the car are pointing straight, not the steering wheel.
If you have equal turns it would suggest the the steering wheel itself is in the wrong place. (there other ways but that is the easiest without getting your hands dirty)
If not equal turns it would suggest that the tracking has been performed with the wheel off-centre. Then you would need to have the tracking done.
It is generally the latter but i have come across on a few occasions where someone has re-fitted the wheel a off centre.
