Hi does anyone know when the autobox changes up? Mine seems to first change at 2k revs. Is that right? Or is it stuck in sport mode?

That's a loaded question.Depends on engine temp, transmission temp,throttle position ,load on trans and everything being in good order.In normal conditions mine changes on light throttle at about 17/1800 up form 1-2-3 ,licks up in 3 ed at about 38_ 40 mph and then up to 4th at about 52 mph

I tend to be a bit more heavy footed and change up points are around 2 - 2.5K. Locks into 4th at around 56 mph.

Sport mode never seems to make an awful lot of difference but can be useful when towing to stop it hunting between rd and 4th at 50 - 60mph.
