Obviously I'll have it in L4 as much as possible.
pretty much what is in this thread, treat your auto like a manual .. by that i mean, know what gear you want, select it, stay in it ... especially if in anything soft / steep ... don't ever wait for the auto to make a decision because by then it's too late (just the same as it would be in a manual if you let the engine practically stall before grabbing a gear)
As you approach a hill climb, or a soft boggy bit of beach... know your gear before hand , stick to it... keep a steady momentum (even go a bit slower if you're revving out....momentum is key, not speed).
i spend a lot of time in H4, 3rd. Rarely need low range except in steep climbs or boggy scary bits
