Its more noticeable when cold, but it still does it when warmed up. I can be sitting at a redlight in drive and just watch the rpm's go up and down. Im wanting to get a custom tune but I guess I better get these items checked out first.

Here's what mine looks like now.

It idles very smoothly and only varies by about 20 rpms.

Just bought and picked up an 08 Extended cab Silverado LT1 on Saturday. The wife drove it home from the dealer. I go out to start it up a couple hours later and notice the gas gauge is empty. I asked her if the dealer filled it up before she took it, and she said she thought so. We even called the salesman, and he said yes, he put in $71.00 worth. Well crap, either he's lying, or someone syphoned our tank. Or so I thought. I went up to the gas station to fill it, and it stopped at 2.5 gallons. WTF? The tank is full, the gas gauge says empty.
So, it goes back to the dealer today. From what I am told, they are changing the fuel computer. 200 trucks on the lot, and I pick the one with a bad fuel computer. Sheez!

Sorry to hear that...not a great way to start a new friendship. Hopefully they get it sorted out fast, and you have no more issues!

I understand there will be problems with vehicles when they are new, but I sure would like better service from the dealer that sold it to us.

How much does the idle change? 20-50 rpms or a lot? Mine will settle in at about 575 when it's warm and in gear. When you figure out the issue and get your tune. Charlie can set the idle at what ever you want. I had to bump it up about 75 rpms to get rid of a small stumble in my '06.

Okay...it does get better once the truck warms up. My tach isnt digital so I can nail it down to 20rpms...but it idles at 500rpms then jumps up about 100rpms or little less for just a sec or two, then falls back down to 500rpms for about 20sec, then jumps back up again. This is with no AC on, so its not the compressor kicking on. This is more noticeable in Park.
Let us know what the dealer says. I hope it's not "normal" as they like to say.
