Hi Kumar, i have same model 2010, 3.8 Engine, i spoken many experts and gone through many websites, what most people suggest is fix a kill switch to stop traction control, even though if we off that it activates automatically, becuase the this vehicle  is programed like that. I have tried all the option you guys have mentioned. Nothing worked . 1 and 2 gear option works sometime. But it takes time to get use to it. The best option is fix a kill switch which will cost much. Even Mitsubishi service centre can help you with this. If you are worried for warranty. Otherwise go to the good garage who repairs off road vehicles.

I drive a 3.8 LWB Pajero 2010 model.

During my last desert drive while climbing a steep hill, I was on 4H with manual tiptronic on 1st gear. However as we had gained some speed and had reached near the hill top the tiptronic would automatically upshift from 1st gear to 2nd gear causing a tremendous loss in power and subsequently speed. So basically it's not holding the 1st gear as long as I wish. Later I noticed that this happens when the speed reaches 50 km/h mark.

 

Anyone has any suggestions on how I can manually override this automatic shift in tiptronic mode especially for steep climbs.
