I just picked up an 09 3.2 with 34k miles. Still have about 15 months on the original warranty and then cpo kicks in. I love the car it replaced an older x5, no comparison the q5 kills it. That said the the steering wheel is off abiout two or three degrees to the left. The alignment seems perfect but the steering wheel is no set correctly. I have had the car less than a month. Will Audi cover this fix under the warranty or should I expect some mumbo jumbo about alignment is on me / driver error. I have been told by a friend that it should be a relative easy fix. Thanks in advance for the feedback i just want to make sure I am loaded with the right ammo before I call the dealer tomorrow.

My 09 does the same.

 

Dealers respond differently to matters such as this. It won't hurt to ask and if you do so quickly and explain that the wheel was off upon delivery, most service managers will approve an adjustment. Don't wait however!

 

even if it's off center, as long as it drives straight, i'm not sure the dealer is gonna do much for you. it sucks, but they'll probably blame it on the crown of the road.

 

I agree that the dealer will help much. If it was just removing the steering wheel and moving it one spline over then maybe they would. But if it's off just a bit this link below should explain what may need to be done. Just my opinion on this:
