    Yeah. There is some movement available in the cradle mounts. Your best bet would be get some fresh cradle bolts, take it to a wheel aligner, tell them to centre the cradle to try and give even camber both sides, and see what the result is. There would be a few mm of movement available.

      Hmmm, might talk to the alignment about this, willing to try anything that might get me fixed on this as cheaply as possible.
      Ok, I Take it i would get the bolts from VW?

        Hello all, Just a quick note to say that this issue has FINALLY been resolved! Unfortunately with a lot of faffing about and costing me a new set of tyres cause of a miss-alignment wrecked my tyres ,but however, they are now Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics 2s!!!
        Pretty sure Corey will be happy to here this, since he kinda likes these, only a little mind you
        I might write a short story about my whole experience with this on another post that hopefully might entertain or shock some members.

          Just a quick question; did this issue cause your car to have hints of soft steering, with a bit of lateral dead play in the steering wheel?
