I’ll need to double check. It should be for the maximum gear available when D1 is selected. Normally this is set to 2 causing the upshift and changing it to 1 will make it hold first.

Chr0m3 I had a proper look this time, you are correct original information I provided is incorrect and is in the IAC area.
I'll go back and put a comment with a correction in the earlier post to avoid future issues.

To get the vehicle to hold first gear in D1 change $01 to $00 at $424F.

Easy, I was just curious if I was missing something, I've always made gears hold by changing the low mode upshift speed, but your way will work to.
