It's not that far off, it's still a three cylinder Yanmar with a few more horses and more weight. You should get a feel what diesels are about from it. Don't go to the 4x20 series, they are Deere engines, not Yanmars and 4 bangers.

Since you posted I have been watching my starting and shutdown of my 2320. I would describe it a shudder not unlike I get when I start my lawn mower or car.

I have an X495 (3 cyl. diesel) and it has (and always has had) a really noticeable "shudder" when I shut it off. I also had a Yanmar 27hp 3 cyl diesel, but it shut down very smoothly.
I just got a new 2520, and it also shuts down very smoothly. (at least in comparison to the 495)
The 2520 motor has "direct fuel injection", and the 2320 is indirect, as is my X495. I'm sure no expert, but I'm thinking that might have something to do with it. Odd that my Yanmar didn't shudder though.

You also have to consider tractor weight because it acts as a buffer. Think about an engine mounted on a block of wood. when you shut it down you notice it much more than if it was attached to the side of the building. The 2520 has more weight than the 2320. The lighter the tractor the more noticeable the engine vibration is with all other factors being equal.
