It's quite common for new cars to arrive from the factory with the alignment out. Worth a try to speak to the service department at your VW dealer, they may well sort it under warranty.

Had 2 golfs from brand new now and both were out, one worse than the other right enough.
MK6 GTI, 3 door, candy white, 18" monza shadow, Xenons, RCD 510 w "dynaudio", sunroof, rear view camera, cruise control & free servicing.
Ordered 28/10/2009. BW07 confirmed. production complete 10/02/2010. Arrived at dealers 17/02/2010. Driving on a 10 plate 01/03/2010.

As far as i know it collects any gasses and vapours that PCV valve lets past.

These vapours are normally rerouted back into the intake for the engine to burn off but can end up clogging up the intake over time.

The oil catch can collects the oil mist and condenses the fuel vapors while allowing "cleaner" gases to be passed back into the intake.

It means you have the catch can to empty and clean out also during your regular oil change, but the stuff these things collect is quite suprising.

Some of them are even filtered on the top to allow the excess oil vapours to be released to atmosphere.

Hope this helps and im sure someone can correct me if im wrong  :wink:
