When I had a 240D with the stock 28 lb flywheel, it was very smooth at all times, and I don't think it left much room for improvement. I used the same flywheel on my 300D, and it has some pretty noticeable vibration with some combinations of speed and load, but this is easily managed by shifting a little later.
