It's somewhat off centre to the left a little

What can be done or caused this?

Yup, start with the tracking. Get a full 4 wheel alignment at a reputable garage.

I'm looking to get front upper arms done in July
So will get 4 wheel alignment done then

What's the difference between tracking and wheel alignment?

It has been straight under your ownership i presume?
Otherwise it could be a couple of clicks out on the actual shaft thingy

Not quite so easy to rectify if airbag fitted.

BITD,we used to drive up and down pulling the steering wheel off and plonking it back on.
