Hi every body

This is my first thread in this forum. I got new 0 meter GMC Denali 2013 yesterday while I was driving i felt fluctuation in the RPM. It was going slightly up than slightly down ward so I tried going on 60 MPH with cruise control on but it did the same thing. And the other issue is the acceleration from 2nd shift to 3rd feels poor I called serves centre and informed them about the issues. They said the RPM fluctuation is normal with all Yukon Denali and regarding the shift issue needs new software to be downloaded. So I am wondering is any of you guys have the fluctuating RPM and is it normal on Yukon Denali.

Haven't heard of that before but you can take it to any GM dealer and they should be able to flash the ECU with the newest updates under warranty.

That is quite the noticeable surge, can you feel it? is your ac on when it's doing it?
When I set the cruise on my Denali when towing it never does anything like that. But, when my ac cycles off and on, I can feel and see it in the tach when I'm on cruise.

^^^ what he said. Try it without the ac..... and see if you can feel it.

I just did 1400 miles on cruise control and did not notice anything like that.
