I have a 2006 Suzuki forenza when I have the car in drive and press the gas it won't go but I can here it accelerating also on the dash where it would be a D when on drive it switches to a flash in d with a \ thru it in a rectangle box. If I shift to 1st or 2nd gear it will do the same thing but if switched to 3rd gear it with show the 3 on the dash and will drive just fines this happens for about 15-20 minutes after driving in 3rd for that time then switching back to D and it will work fine this happens about once every 1-3 days

have it scanned for codes to see if it may be an electrical problem like maybe the switch on trans auto parts can do it for free, if no codes show up then have it looked at by a trans guy as it may be something inside trans. It sounds electrical to me like either a bad switch or a wiring issue or maybe the tcm which tells the trans what to do.
