RPM's pulsating down 1st 8min's driving

2004 S-type 3.0 V6; 75k miles

After I start driving for about 1-2 minutes my RPM's start pulsating down about 3-400RPM for the next 6 minutes. After that the hesitation goes away. Any ideas?

What speed are you at? Steady? Increasing? What gear is the transmission in?

If this is at a steady 60-70KPH and you're in an upper gear there is a technical bulletin that covers this- one of the computers needs to be reflashed (or similar)
