I have the same problem... wheel alignment was done and wheel balance has been checked twice..
My engine mounts are a bit worn so I'm going to get that done this year, I asked the garage to check towards the end of the last year and they said they couldn't see anything... Any other ideas?

The flywheel is interesting, I got my car on 118k miles and it's now on 160k, never changed the clutch or flywheel in my ownership, it could still be on the original so maybe that's something..

For what it's worth, I had the same issue on a car and it took three different mechanics before the answer was revealed and it was a flat spot on the tyre. Two of them missed it. It was ever so slight but at 70mph really made a difference. As you said it comes and goes, it may be dependent on road surface conditions, just as you can notice a difference in noise of the tyre depending on road surface.

A buckled alloy can lead to vibration, which can be felt through the steering if its bad enough.

I might get the engine mounts done because they need doing anyway then take it to the more in depth Volvo specialist in Glasgow to get them to investigate.

Sounds like a plan. Sometimes issues like that are hard to diagnose.
