i have a p38 and when towing my trailer at 100 km/h it is constantly changing gears is there a way of installing a shift lock like there is in patrols or possibly overriding the signal for kickdown whilst towing on the highway

cheers but it's a kick down control issue because of the extra weight of the trailer you have your foot further down resulting with the computer thinking you want to go faster so it drops down a gear, this i what i want to override so i will be able to plant it on a hill without a gear change

got to remember its 2.2 ton of car before you put a trailer on it. i have never really had a problem with mine changing down to early with a trailer and loads on the back
