I've my my accord for a week now and was going down a pretty steep hill. I wasn't accelerating or braking but notice the down shift and the engine braking, RPM then went up to 4. I tried to give it a little acceleration but nothing really changed. Is the new accord suppose to do this? Is it because of the logic control. It was a short decend I'd have to try it more just want to know if anyone else notice/encounter this. Thank you for the inputs.

I have a 4 cyl. 5AT 4 Door.
