Thats normal mate.it was happening to me too untill i learned how to handle it. Half a km before the uphill step on it a few good 15-20kms and will compensate for that extra rev will need not to gear down.At the end (the gearbox software) will teach itself that it wont need t gear down unless the hill is too steep.
