Dual Mass Flywheel Problem?

Dual Mass Flywheel Problem?
Hi All.
I purchased a 2006 X-Type 2.2d SE with 147 000km on the clock a week ago, my first Jag after a 30 year long love affair, and as Murphy's Law would have it, two days later a noise developed.
With the clutch pedal depressed, there is no noise. But with the clutch engaged in neutral, there is a rattling noise between idling speed and about 1100 RPM that is reminiscent of a late 1990's Isuzu direct injection diesel, in other words very noisy! Above about 1100RPM in neutral the noise disappears, not gradually but stops instantly as the revs climb, and vice versa.
My research on this site and others suggests that it's probably the Dual Mass Flywheel on it's way out. Can anyone confirm this?

Sorry, depressing the clutch releases the driven plate from being pressed against the flywheel by the pressure plate.
In my experience, when a DMF fails, it usually is due to clutch slipping, towing or other vibrational/torsional stress being placed on the clutch components. It usually begins with judder when starting from a stop.
