No , that's the correct way around mine is like that. My tyres do tend to wear on one side though. It was the WRONG way round when you posted the 'Bluetooth video' a while ago. 8)

Bugger - I've just checked mine, and as it is a UK import, it hasn't been adjusted for Antidpodean driving.
Oh well, it's a long weekend this weekend, so I'll have plenty of time to re-orientate it correctly for Southern Hemisphere driving.

Think you’ll struggle to rotate the wheel due to the splines.

I’m guessing the steering columns been off and put back in the wrong position.

I think your car might be on upside down.
