Default XC90 Vibrating on light acceleration

Hi, guys!
Around 2 months ago bought 2007 XC90 3.2 with 147k miles on it.
When i was making a test drive the car was ok.

But in a few weeks i found such symptoms:
- only when car is hot and driving on highway or in traffic, on 2-3-4 gears when i just touching the accelerator, it start to vibrate to body heavily, when i press the pedal more- it disappeared.
- but there is no any shakes and strange vibrations when i just shifting it from p to D and back.
- the engine works ok. No power loses, no noise. No leakage of oil/trans.fluid
- no warning lights!

I visited 2 services in Brooklyn.
On one they offer to change trans/fluid and there is 50/50 that its help- fluid 100$, work 100$

Other service offer to rebuild the transmission- change gears- budget - much more...

Please, advise what to do.

i realy like the car, but want to have more pleasure driving it.

Kindly, Anton

This sounds very much like the front CV joint on your propeller shaft.

Here's a link to some cheap ones:

FCP has genuine Volvo but they're nearly $300.

Cant tell if your issue is fixed, I had something similar, I thought it it was a fuel sensor, PEM, and finally I replaced all the ignition coils. That was the fix. Good luck
