    If it didn't do it prior to the work being done, I'd check and see that:
    A) The motor mount bracket and motor mounts are tight.
    B) That the mechanic installed the hanger bearing correctly and that your driveline angles are set to spec.

    My money is on the hanger bearing not being positioned correctly, giving a vibration due to incorrect driveshaft angles.

    Is there a speedway that you can check the angle because that's what I was thinking sometimes they got spacers maybe he didn't put in or maybe he didn't line up the drive line

    Many of us were trying to beat Volvo mystery vibration. Haven't seen one lucky.
    Try to check these specs.
