I pulled up to a stop light and car was running fine, when I went to take off.........no movement. It will move in reverse only. The fluid is fine and there are no leaks. What could have happened? No noises, leaks and the car is running super fine.............Please help!!!

Check the adjustment of the Control pressure cable. Here's how. 300E 3.2L & 300SE Remove air cleaner. Adjust control pressure cable by turning adjusting screw until tips of needles align. Install air cleaner. This is for the 3.2 and bottom is 2.8 OK?
