Torque Converter could be locking up and not releasing properly. Are you manually in 2/3 on the shifter at the time? Or do you just know in overdrive what gear you are in?

Could be a clogging catalytic.

Those are common culprits on these cars.

X 2 when is the last time you changed the fuel filter? The Cat converter is something to check

X3with the potential clogging catalytic converter. Not throwing a code yet, but effecting your performance. Is your fuel consumption getting to be more than your old average?
