What you probably mean to say is: get the tracking done and right before they start doing it, jump in the car YOURSELF to center the steering wheel so that afterwards it's actually centered.

I ALWAYS center the steering wheel myself before they start doing the tracking.

A decent tracking place would make sure the steering wheel was straight and where I go also attach a clamp from the bottom of the steering wheel, to the seat, so help ensure it stays straight cool

Yups, they should do that. Still reckon most on here have a steering wheel that's still slightly off center. A free wiggle of the steering wheel and really aiming for dead straight does the trick. If they take the time for it, it's no problem, still - I like to verify myself to correct those last 2°.

My Plus is a mere 770 miles off the big 100k so I'm planning on treating her to a full suspension refresh in the next month or so. After that a precautionary change of the CHOD when the better weather gets here. I've just sorted the alarm so there's not much else to do other than a clean every weekend to keep her mint smile
