The auto transmission goes into reverse gear and turns the wheels when jack up but it does not move when on the ground, it seems to have a lack of pressure to drive. I have all the forward gears and no problem. The fluid level i check when in Park and running and and is full. No smell or colour change to the auto fluid. What can I check or recommend, thanks

either the front pump has failed or the torque converter has failed. you need a trans shop to pin point the failure
