2015 GL350 bluetec stutter accelerating on cold engine
Hi guys,
My car stutter accelerating during the first few minutes (which I see rpm flickers up and down), but it drives normal after that. What could be a possible problem? There's no CEL light yet.
Thanks in advance.

We've only had our 2015 GL350 for a few months and it does the same thing with it's cold. I assumed it was normal, but I'd love to know if there's something I need to fix. What's everyone else's experience?

We bought our 2014 GL350 new and it's still going strong with a little over 70K mi.
The diesel engine obviously "smooths out" (noise and vibration) once it warms up but I've never seen any stuttering or unexplained RPM variations, ever. And the MB engine is not rough when cold, it's just a subtle improvement.
