XK8---transmission jumps to Paddle Shift Mode........

Guys......
Never a dull moment......for two years now, my '07 XK8 would occasionally jump into Paddle Shift Mode while sitting stopped. This means stuck in first gear; it recovers normal operation if I stop and go to neutral and back to drive. The gear indication jumps to 123456 on screen. This happened twice yesterday. Has anyone seen this or fixed it? It is awkward to get off to the side and stop sometimes.

Agree, the post is confusing perhaps because the OP doesn’t have full knowledge of how the shifters work.
Sounds like whilst stopped in gear it’s automatically shifting to 1st gear and his fix’s shifting from drive to neutral to drive which’s normal. Also if in manual mode 1st gear, pressing and holding the right paddle shifter should switch it back to automatic mode.
