Welcome to 2CarPros.

Have you checked the basics? For example, is the fluid clean and full? Next, have you noticed any leaks? When shifting the gears, does the indicator on the cluster indicate the gear you are selecting?

Here is a link that explains different common issues. Take a look through it and let me know if it helps.
