He said that the throttles are sensor controlled and when you push on the gas the sensor can interpret that you want to go faster/slower than you want and it takes it a split second to figure out the correct reading and that can cause the hesitation.

What happens when a Duramax engine goes down?

What’s the throttle response on a 2006 Silverado?
Most of the 2006s have the LBZ engine and every LBZ I’ve driven had no lag at all…the instant response was right there!!! I would have to think that there is some sort of problem with the truck. Might check the fuel filter and have the selling dealer give it a general going over.
Why is my DMAX not working on my Silverado?
On the road the RPM’s are right where you need them, so a little throttle just sets you back in your seat with no downshifting. When it is cold outside, the Dmax isn’t much of a performer until it gets up to operating temps (which could take 10 miles or so). If the fuel filter has never been changed, then it is likely due to be done.
