<VV> Steering wheel position gradually changed and front suspendion noises

[Daniel Monasterio]

I would check thightening of all bolts on suspension, mostly the camber adjusters. If any of them becomes loose, camber could change and steering wheel position will move from centerline to keep car on a straight line. Check idler arm bolts, too.
