its to do with your tracking. a garage should lock the steering wheel straight while they sort your tracking out

yea if you have had the shock bolts off the camber affects the tracking as well as it pulls the hubs in and out

It's tracking, at one point when the monkeys at Abbey Tyres did it, it was so bad that the steering wheel was pointing about 45 degrees to the left.

Get it sorted by somewhere not full of mindless idiots and it'll be spot on
