The vibration is reduced significantly in Comfort engine mode. I don't know if it's due to the less aggressive tune or maybe active motor mounts?
Can confirm the vibration is about halved with the engine in comfort mode. Very interesting and not sure how this is achieved if the vibration is purely coming from the lack of balance shafts... ?

wow... this has been an issue i've been discussing with some folks on the DE5 forum. you explained it perfectly, the two waves aspect of it matches exactly what i have. everyone was mentioning wastegate arm rattle, but that was off throttle. my "issue" was under load and building boost. i've noticed it in 2nd gear and slightlyyyy in 3rd as well.

thanks for easing my mind....


AND

sorry for resurrecting this old thread, i'm just a simple minded DE5 boy.
