I noticed the other day that while at a stop light at the top of hill my car started rolling back if I didn't hit the brakes. Is this normal? None of my other cars did this. Shouldn't the tranny lock the car from rolling back in drive? Do I have tranny problems?

Sorry, forgot to mention it is an automatic. I know this is normal for a manual. It says newbie next to my name but I'm not that stupid.

I have an automatic '00 Civic and mine does that too, just depends like mentioned above, how steep the hill is.
