Gearing up and down

You can manually change from D to 3 to alleviate the problem. And at what speed and RPM if you are at, under low RPM and light throttle kickdown can be delayed unless you goose the gas. At hi-way speed I never have an issue only driving around town, we have some steep hills,right after traffic lights and no lead up, so sport mode or manually changing gears works best for me in those conditions

Adding throttle def. kicks it in. If I coast into the hill at 70 and try to maintain it, it slows, slows slows and gravity does its thing. Then I put the foot down and it powers up and shifts down.
If it were a manual transmission, I would have shifted to third by that time for it to take me up the hill w/o stalling.
All I am trying to do here is figure out if there's an issue or not - or if this is a normal disco 2 thing...sort of work out the character and sort it from the broken.
