My car doesn't move while on drive but spins forward on all gear while jacked up.

This can be because the internal speed sensor has gone out, but we should run the codes to see, also please check the fluid level. Here are two guides to help get us started on fixing the problem. I have included instructions in the images below for your car.

You could have a clogged transmission filter as well. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
