No the car will not shift into any gear I can move the shifter but it doesn't shift its like I didn't put it in reverse or drive it made a loud whining noise. Yea its full of transmission fluid. It runs fine as far as engine. This happened as I was driving and right after I turned right on to another road. Never have I had any transmission slipping or anything.
