Hi looking for abit of advice, I recently had my bmw 330 cd e46 reaped, 300 miles later car has started vibrating when you floor it, think its the DMF
(DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL)
Clutch has started slipping aswell now and vibration has stopped,
Do they do a solid flywheel kit, has any body had this or done this??
Or do I need to just fit new dual mass and clutch, worried torque is just going to brake it again.

a solid a flywheel yal need false teeth cos all yours will be shattered due the brutality of the torque pulse...clutch will prolly be fried and goosed if it was vibrating beforehand (springs bottoming out on the DMF) the entire peak torque savagery has gone thru the clutchplate instead of the DMF absorbing it..

as above unless ya turn it down ya just gonna fry everythng your prolly gonna have to replace eventually...a solid flywheel will just shake and pummell you and the car to bits...

Yep, the engine is producing pulses of power, 2 per revolution on a 4 cyl, and 3 per revolution on a 6 cyl.
Driving in a high gear means a lower engine speed, and a higher wheel speed.

If you have the engine turning faster for the same wheel speed (ie. in a lower gear) the overall power output is smoother.

Even without tuning, you might find you could accelerate away from a low speed in a high gear, but it would be better to have more smaller power pulses more often, than full throttle and big pulses coming slower in a high gear.
