Why is the steering wheel of my Audi 80 shaking while driving?

I have recently noticed that the steering wheel of my Audi 80 starts to shake violently while driving at high speeds. This happens intermittently and seems to worsen over time. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

The most likely cause for steering wheel shaking in your Audi 80 is an unbalanced wheel or tire.

Another possible cause could be worn out suspension components, such as tie rods or ball joints.

Have your wheels and tires professionally balanced and rotated to see if that resolves the issue before replacing any suspension components.
