When on gear with an automatic, what makes you go if you release the brake pedal is only the power of the engine at idle. ITs like when you yave a manual and you let it roll at idle in one of the gears. It will roll without giving any gas.
On an incline, if the incline is stronger than the engine power at idle, you will go down a bit. I would think this is normal.
Also, if the car is shut down and is still in gear, the transmission is still attach to the engine and on an incline, theres nothing really to stop it from rolling, (the park pin isnt there when its in gear) but if it rolls down a hill, all the parts inside are moving. Its like towing a car on its power wheels and leaving it in gears, you risk, well you will screw the tranny and possibly the engine.
Im no rocket scientist, but thats my 2 cents
