This is pulling my TT (6-7k)

What does the motor do Jose? Any cutting out, or just no power and sounds ok? Smoke? You do have a problem, maybe you should start a new thread so we can get more help.

Yes sir, it doesnt downshift manually or with the OD button. It shifts normally starting out and gaining speed, only doesnt respond going up hill. I know its weird, but that is as it is , and of course the EGTs goes to 1200-1250* and as I cant rev up the engine its impossible to decrease them.
