Hello there ...

I did put the kick down switch on the pedal and put a second on off switch so I can have on as much as I like

This didn't change anything

1st gear changes on its own at 40km when shifter is at 2 position

Can anybody pleeeeease help me keep the first gear till the end and keep it?

Please help

what is your redline? did you try it with launch control?
i have a 722.4 transmission which i think it's similar to 722.3, i can hold the first gear to the redline which is 6000rpm, but i don't know at which speed as i dont have a speedometer at the moment.
Tomorrow going to try with the speedometer app on my phone, will post my results.

Do you have your foot all the way depressed to the floor. Full throttle? If so then does it shift at the same point in other gears?

if you put in D with full throttle at what rpm does it shift? are you sure when you move the selector down it goes to 2 ?
maybe try to put it in 2 then go to D then again to 2

Hi there..

Thanks for the replies

I have tried everything but nothing change

When WOT it goes 40-45 km
When not wot 30-35

Gear changes in other gears at different points

I want the first gear to go to the redline when the selector is in 2

any update on this?
Have you tried playing with bowden cable to change shift point?
Maybe your last solution is to change the gearbox

Hi there...

Am going to a mercedes specialist to adjust the Bowden cable and see if am doing something wrong

No money to change gearbox again..
I ll stay with this

Not bad to change to second at 40km because then it starts spinning and second comes to spin all the way till 125km
