Clutch Assist Saga - End Game?

Ok had accumulator and slave changed. That fixed my stiff clutch pedal. However, my steering wheel is now kinked to the right by half an inch – no longer dead center as it was before. They assured me they haven’t touched anything that could cause this for an example - dropped my engine at the repair procedure. I understand power steering and clutch assist are somehow connected via the pump? Is it possible that by changing clutch assist parts, wheel alignment went out of spec? I will do the alignment again, no problem but I don’t understand why this has happened…

They had to mess with the alignment at the rear control links when pulling your engine out. They of course didn't have to mess with that, but idiots happen. Or, they could have just curbed it hard while pretending to take on corner curbing at Monza on the test drive.
Sometimes it just feels like....
Designed by PhD's,
Engineered by Masters,
Owned by Professionals, and
Repaired by HS dropouts (there are exceptions).

Check tire pressures.... Get the alignment fixed. It'll be happy again.

The only way that can occur is if a pot hole was hit or a curb or something. But also tire pressure can affect that or the roll in the road. They could have done nothing even pulling the engine as the rear sub frame has zero adjustments on it. The 993TT was a different story.
