    Axle Alignment

    I have just notice that the right rear wheel sticks out further that the left, also it pulls slightly to the right. My Landrover is a 95' 300tdi.

    Sticky Steering Wheel

    When my S3 has been standing for any length of time in wet weather, the surface of the steering wheel gets sticky - leaving black deposits over the driver's hands which are a bu99er to get off. After about 20 minutes of driving, it's smooth and dry again. Any ideas?
