When Bosch introduced Motronic in the early 1980s, full fuel cutoff on a closed throttle was introduced. To the best of my knowledge, all BMWs since that time have had zero fuel flow under closed throttle until around 1200-1400rpms (depends on the engine, but it resumes to prevent stalling). Similarly other makes behave in the same fashion. It's relatively easy to observe in action. I'm not aware of BMW changing things with the S65 in this regard...don't think it flows any fuel on a closed throttle as long as revs are above ~1200ish.
