First, dump your dealer. And write him a nasty note. Copy your service bills and send a copy to Volvo Corp of North America, let them know that you cannot get good service from your dealer.
Then, get a helper with good ears. Open the hood, put the car in gear and with your foot firmly on the brake, push on the gas slowly until you hear the rattle. The ear person will probably find a loose heat shield by the cat converter. Let the car cool and remove the heat shield.
