I believe this phenomenon is caused by the TQ converter has locked up while braking at low speeds, until you tell it to downshift?

I've also had this happen in without telling it to downshift while in M. I try and avoid it by not hovering around 15 km/h.

Ohh alright then. So it's not just me.

My understanding of automatic transmissions aren't as clear as a manual transmission

Thanks !
