Default Engine Wobble or Transmission Clutch Slip

I love my 2019 XC60 T5 Inscription but it wobbles in 2nd gear around 2000 +/- 300 RPM. Especially with the added load of going up a hill. 3rd gear does it too but not as bad as 2nd. Volvo cannot (or won't) fault it. Oddly a transmission ECU reset each service appears to clear it for about 2 weeks and then it returns. The car is just not smooth to drive and every time I drive a rental (which is often with my business travel), I am reminded that cars are normally smooth and then coming home to my XC60 is painful as there it is again, that damn wobble. It reminds me of the clutch slip issue that Ford had with its Fiesta less than 10 years ago. It's nothing to do with the wheels and driving it in the Dynamic mode helps me avoid that rev band in 2nd. Does anyone else experience the same problem?
