Dual Mass Flywheels are popular on diesel cars but do have a tendency to self destruct. It's one of several technologies that negate the fuel savings of diesel with huge repair bills. The Pendulum Absorber is something I hadn't heard of before but is in the same class.

It really is a false economy to produce super-economical cars that in reality have only a short life.
