To be fair, having spoken to the excellent service manager at Leatherhead Volvo and internet based research, it does seem that vibration problems on our cars could be caused by many different faults. Starting with tyres, wheel balance, brake parts, suspension components to axels, drive shafts and engine mountings. You just have to start with tyres and work your way down the chain, eliminating component by component until you fix it.
Mine is going in on Monday. Fingers crossed they get to the bottom of it.

I'm watching this thread with interest and would appreciate any feedback from anyone who has been able to resolve the issue.
I've also noticed a similar problem, nowhere near as pronounced as some people have suggested, but it is still there.... and my car's only done 2,300 miles. I very rarely travel at the speeds required to make it noticeable but never-the-less, it shouldn't happen at all, especially not with a car of this calibre. Terry

Hi All - I have an update for you.
The (new) garage has had the car for 4 days this week. They swapped wheels and other components from a known faultless v90 to help isolate the problem. Each time road testing the car after each component swap. 1/4 tank of diesel has been used! Finally they found a fault with the prop shaft on my car. (as flagged by piotrek some weeks ago as a known issue) The garage has ordered a new prop shaft (2 week delivery). In the meantime they have re-fitted the original prop so the car is drivable. The garage has also attempted to 'fix' the problematic universal joint with a hammer and say it is better than it was. I'll be testing this out on a long run next week.

Maybe I am missing something but "prop shaft"? I thought that S90 was fwd? Or is there a 4wd version launched now?
