Front end alignment/ steering wheel position
Front end alignment/ steering wheel position
After this (done by dealer) the steering-wheel seems to be set to the right slightly (allowing for the road camber) I feel it should it be neutral as it was before. Does this happen when TTM is not done correctly?2003 D2a Auto TD5 good Landy gone

Nope, it happens when the tracking isn't set properly.
If you are handy with the spanners, you could fix it yourself.
Mark the track rods current position with a paint pen, or Tippex, then loosen the lock nuts. I think both track rod ends are std right hand thread, so you need to wind the left hand rod 1/2 turn clockwise (into the rod end) and the right hand rod 1/2 turn anticlock (out of the rod end).
You won't have changed the tracking, but you will have moved the rack to the left, so your steering wheel should be more central. If it's not enough, try another 1/2 turn on each.
You might need to reset the steering angle sensor, or you'll get errors!Richard
