Actually, thinking about it, my statement doesn't really make sense. The output of the torque converter is stopped no matter in H, L, or R. So the drag to the engine should be the same.

Still, one thing I guess it could be would be a dragging or otherwise partially-engaged lockup clutch. When you drive around do you feel the torque converter lock up at, say, 25 mph or so? Forgive me, I'm thinking out loud here.
