Can anyone offer some advice. I have an Ansmann Macnum. The front wheels point slightly left instead of straight and I can get mutch better steering lock left than right. I can straighten the wheels if I use maximum trim on my transmitter, but this does not sort out the reduced steering lock when turning right. How can I adjust this. Cheers Steve

try recntralising the steering horn on the servo?
Remove the horn switch on the TX an RX set your steering trim to centre on the tx staighten the wheels on the vehicle and refit the steering horn.

Check all the rods are equal lengths both sides to begin with.
Assuming you've centralised your servo horn you can then adjust the servo end point (EPA) on your transmitter. That is also assuming your transmitter has EPA. This enables you to adjust the throw of the servo lock to lock.

There's a bit more explained here

There may also be other threads specific to the car your trying to adjust.

First: get your steering to centre at neutral - check servo, horn and tie-rods.

Second: adjust EPA on your radio.

Third: enjoy.
