More than likely you need a four wheel alignment if you've replaced the upper and lower wishbone bushes.

As Steve says it will need a 4 wheel alignment doing. Then the steering angle sensor reset.
I had the same issues after doing my bushes.
Hope that helps

Short term you can get away with recalibrating the steering angle sensor but the correct sequence of events is:
Have a proper 4 wheel alignment done.
Recalibrate the steering angle sensor.
Your local tyre + exhaust centre will most probably not have the required equipment nor knowledge to help you. Find somewhere that can but search the forum for more complete info.Mods:

+1 for alignment/steering angle sensor. Did you measure distance from wheel arch to hub centre (465mm iirc) before tightening arm bolts?

Mine did the same when I replaced the lower front arms, the N/S front camber bolt wasn't fully lined up with the marks made prior to removing the arm. A full alignment on a Hunter rig fixed the problem.GAP IID Pro Multi Vehicle Defender L316 2007-2015 - Discovery 3 - Discovery 4 - Discovery Sport L550 - Freelander 2 - Range Rover Evoque L538 - Range Rover L322 - Range Rover L405 - Range Rover Sport L320 - Range Rover Sport L494 Electrical Fault Diagnostics
