Default My 1999 S80 T6 dashboard shakes like crazy on the freeway.

My 1999 S80 T6 dashboard shakes like crazy on the freeway. Does anyone know how I can fix this. If I apply pressure to the top of the dashboard while im driving with my hand it stops the shaking and the noise a lot. Please help its so annoying.

Make sure everything is tight holding it, may need a new one.

I have Volvo S80 2000, the light on the dash board is out; therefore, the gas gage, thermostart is not working and the car has stopp strating. What is the problem?

You need to get your tires balanced and or wheel alignment. at least have a alignment shop take a look at it.

then that means one/ or more control arm/s bushings are worn/old. I had something like this last week. The outer tie rods and upper control bushings were soo worn out that there was play in the joints. You should have it inspected. For me, it cost me $210 to replace both outer tie rods and upper control arm bushings. Best have it checked out at a shop.
