nope the dont take off the wheels, i went to my local kwick fit and the did it on the car. they straped a measuring thing to the car and adjust under the car to get the tracking right. had a right nightmere getting onto the ramps, had to get blocks of wood so my splitter wouldnt scrape. right nightmere but the did a great job. before i went the my steering wheels was ut when i wanted to go in a straight line. now is spot on and if i hols steeringwheel straight i go straight. before i would hold the wheel straight and it wouldbe asif i was oing rund a bend lol.
only costs bout 25 quid. defo worth every penny, also sorts out your tyre wear!

turned out not to be the tracking fault.
kwick fit wont touch my car.
so i went to my VW dealers. they said every VW goes to the left, just incase u fall asleep and u will crash to the side, not the opposite side of the road!!

id prefer it to go in a straight line!
and have a sleeping driver detector that'll sound an alarm, then bring the car to a safe halt 30 seconds later
