The info below in red is quoted from iH8mud by uHu.
Steering angle sensor zeroing on non-vgrs:
The only indication on a way to do this is from a friend on the local lc forum. It looks like the method is to disconnect the steering angle sensor, then power up the ecu (ign on), then off again, reconnect the sensor, and power up again - with the steering straight.
What he did was to open up the steering wheel assembly and the sensor to see if there is a way of adjusting it. After looking a bit, he found that the steering sensor was giving a zero angle with the steering straight (it used to be way out), and retracing what he had done, he found that this is the method.
I will try it myself one day - but mine is only 20 something out.

I'm not sure if this is old news, but this is what I have just done.
I can confirm this procedure works for zeroing you steering angle sensor, the plug in question is the large white one in the picture, it’s easy to get at, just remove the steering column shroud and it’s underneath, (no need to remove the steering wheel), my angle was at 38 degrees on Techstream with the steering wheel straight, the procedure will also work without Techstream, so as uHu say’s, unplug steering angle sensor plug with ignition off, make sure your steering wheel is straight, turn ignition on, no need to start engine, turn ignition off, put plug back in, as long as you haven’t moved your wheel it will now be at zero.
