My 1999 4.0ltr has a gearbox issue which only accurs on kickdown. It operates fine in 4 low and high (tested this weekend) and in normal use. Its not slow at start up i.e when cold and the sport button seems to work and there are no messages on the dash. Problem is if i use kick down at about 4000 rpm it seems to hold and not rev any higher it is as if something is holding it back or like a rev limiter is on, however ease off on the gas pedal and it changes up a gear. The gearbox oil and filter was changed recently and the level is correct. Before i start swapping ECU,s for the gearbox is there a possibility that the MAF sensor could be affecting it?
Any help greatly recieved.
