Steering Wheel Tilt

your dealer is right...if the splines were off it would be much more than 2 degrees off... it's likely that the build date/revision is different from the original steering wheel

you can get an alignment to get the steering wheel centered but is it really worth it? i dont think so. i would just live with the slightly cocked steering wheel until you really need an alignment and have that taken care then.
