Diesel engines are prone to strong vibrations at low rpm.  To solve this, BMW developed the centrifugal pendulum at the dual mass flywheel in order to acoustically reduce these sound n yet keep revs low to gain the class leading emission standards n fuel economy. U can google that. As a result, the engine idles at low 700 rpm, u can barely feel n hear the diesel clatter n vibrations inside the cabin save for a faint chatter. As u read more of the other tech put in place by BMW on this amazing engine, u just sit in awe of this masterpiece.</blockquote>
