I have a 2011 450 in a 29' MH and use T/H when going down hills, but sometimes, the engine downshifts automatically to a lower gear that I consider to low. This happens while in T/H and I brake it a little. I realize that "to low" is relative, but the engine is screaming. I then take it out of T/H and manual brake it for a few seconds and then reapply T/H. I wonder if I need to slow down a bit, I should take it out of T/H and manually gear it down. What are your thoughts?
