Default transimission slipping

I have had my car for about 4 months. Yesterday Pulling out of a parking lot heard some noise with my car. I cut the car off then on again it jerked. The noise was a grinding sound. Then off and on again it drove. Then repeated the noise. So I cut the car off and on again and was able to drive completely home no gear change. Can anyone explain this? The model is manual and automatic i drove in automatic so I believe. Could this be a transmission problem?

had car towed about a week or so ago come to find out something in the transmission was going bad. $7200 for a new transmission. Used will be $4200. The warranty company sending a used transmission but will only cover for another 5,000 miles when warranty expires. I am definitely getting rid of this car.

IS250 or IS350? Not too many members having trans problems, even on a 10yr old car. Like with any model, you'll have your bad eggs and your good. Plenty more eggs than bad though.

I wouldn't say it's both auto and standard, but auto got you home?

Your profile says 2010, how is it NOT under warranty? How many miles?

^See them all the time on ebay from $750 to $1500 shipped. Also a good idea to check out national parts yards, like Co-part for example, for local pick-up.
