New V70 question V70-XC70

I test drove a new 2004 V70 and as a long time Volvo owner I was impressed. I do have one question though. At an idle should you be able to feel and hear the pulses of the engine as sort of a thrumming. It is noticable at an idle but smooths out under power. Is this normal for a transverse mounted 5 cylinder engine?

My 960 has a very smooth engine with no noticable pulsations at an idle - and that's after 150K miles.

Thanks in advance..
