A better way of going uphill is to move the gear down to 3 to lock out the "overdrive" so you don't spoil your gearbox by letting it hunt for gears all the time going uphill. Good luck maybe is time for a supercharger kit??? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
