Just tested 530i and 530d, the 530i was so good but 530d, Better. 530d really give you the same *feeling as when you take off to air from a small airplane and never hesitate to reach 245km/h. This is what I am looking for in E60.*

Visnu
I noticed that the 530d car vibrate when ignition off compare to 530i. Is it common among 530d?

yeap its normal for the engine to vibrate when u turn off the ignition, but i have checked with my friend whos a tech in bmw, its nothing to do with the mounting its just because its a diesel engine and its normal, and very true the 530d gives a drastic pull, esp with the DS mode

Visnu, Noted. But it vibrate and shake the whole car for less than a second. Does the car vibrate when it was new?

Contrary to that my braders, though the vibration is norm but there is a limit to it, it shud not vibrate like a big diesel lorry so to say .
The function of the engine mounting, if its in good condition will "absorb" that "vibration sensation" to its minimum. I hv had mine changed once before (after abt 200K km) and there is a significant difference ...

Hope this will shed some light .... Cheerio guys :4:..

:listen: aiyooo doc, dun let the cat out of the bag so soon laa :4: ....
 
VP, any chance to meet up? Would be nice to check out your car and compare it to mine. I still think the vibration on my car is more than it should be. A friend told me that he tested the 530d when it is new and it was so quiet that he didn't know it is a diesel
