Hmmmm...not good at all. Keep it in 2 or 3 then until you get it fixed. It's not gonna be cheap though.

Pretty much exactly what just happened to my mums. Clutches in the auto wear over time, so when it tries to engage the clutches, they just start slipping and not engaging, and will sliiiip, then bang into gear. Had to get a trasmission rebuild, $1650. Good luck man, hope its something a little less bad.
