In what way?

Like it's loosely fitted, or at speed when you're driving long.

If the latter, it could be unbalanced wheels or something like bent wishbones. Have you hit any kerbs recently?

It sounds like your wheel bolts need tightening or your steering wheel needs tightening up urgently!

I think I know what you mean, the wheel just feels sooooo light and is easily moved about, almost like its not attached to anything... I think its just a temp prob with the power steering, happened to me once, when driving over very unstable ground (gravel etc..)

Should go back to normal, else needs checking out

yea it just shakes when u go over speed humps and any bumpy surface it moves the dash aswell at the top where the windscreen is, theres a gap in between the window and the dash but its only near my side and not the passanger side, u can fit ur finger init on the drivers side but not the passanger
