Re: steering wheel not straight 900 1997

Try swapping your wheels front to back and left to right. This can cause pulling and differences in wear/make/type/age of tyre can afect steering quite radically. Failing that, unbolt the steering wheel and turn it one notch on the splines. Its easier to set the alignment at the track rod ends and then align the wheel on the splies than adjust both front wheel alignment AND steering wheel alignment at track rod ends. It's an incredibly fine adjustment and often a compromise between road wheel and steering wheen alaignment (cos adjusting one at this point affects the other) so nothing is ever quite right again.
