Yeah, same. Small changes in the road surface plus a bit of rain plus a change of direction equals finger-shaped dents in the steering wheel and an inch of seat drawn into the sphincter.

Lol Nice try.

My 172 Cup is an '04 plate. Hang on, that's not really relevant...

Mine used to lose all the mobile Internet settings when I updated the OS but that was on an O2 simplicity contract thingy. I had to change the settings from mobile to wap, etc., manually.

Just fill the car with bags of cement. Job done.

Get on a flat car park and hold the wheel central. If it doesn't wander left or right then it's not the tracking. Given that it goes with the road camber/surface then it's more likely just tramlining because of the tread pattern or iffy tyre profiles. What size wheels are you running? This sort...

Especially the squeaks and rattles. They seem to get more rhythmic.
