transmission/software problem??
I was driving and came to a stop from a highway, when I started moving the car felt like was only with one gear; I manually change to 5-4-3-2 and 1 but nothing changed; i stopped to park and I had no reverse at all. I turned off the car and restarted and it worked fine. Is it a transmission or computer issue; I have no error codes, trans was serviced at 40k miles at dealer and now I have 52k. thanks for any ideas.

The transmission went into limp mode. Rebooting cleared the issue. Just monitor - this has happened twice in my cars life & never returned. Many things can trigger the GB protection.
