Thank you all for the reply ! the car is fine so far , i went to the dealer and they said as long as the engine light is not on and it started again no issue and its a one time thing ! ( my car does have the half-manual thing , i guess it was unclear in what i wrote before )

the dealers explanations doesn't sound very promising, they should at least check it out for you
