Help! Used 2003 G35 making strange noise

[queenofkings]

I just bought a used 2003 G35 - Garnet Fire Red - beautiful car! One thing is worrying me - It makes a little grinding noise (auto trans) right at 5 mph after I first start it and begin to drive. After I begin driving and come to a stop and take off again, it doesn't do it. Only if I turn the car off and restart it will always make this noise the first time I hit 5 mph. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? Just would like to have idea before I take it into dealer. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated - Thank You!!

To me it kinda sounds like a starter solenoid that doen't dissengage, since once you start moving the vehicle the you must turn off the car to duplicate the noise, but i dont know for sure.
