What do you mean by "command shift"? Is it like manual mode.

You cant get lower than low first whether it be auto or manual. Uphill you can select say second and it will no change down to first...so you use more torque without wheelspin...or you have a manual where you take control completely and there is no running on down hill from the torque converter.

Cheers

great thread,I am learning heaps about my new d2a v8 without actually trying it[yet],so if the hill descent is factory set at 7km is it possible to set it with a nanacom\faultmate etc to a lower speed,7km seems way to fast to crawl down steep rocky stuff.
