Just bought the car listed above (V6) and a week later it won't move once in gear. Goes into gear smoothly just won't move. Trying buy parts but not sure what to buy. Any input would be appreciated.

Good morning,

Does it go into reverse?

I would start by changing the fluid and filter in the transmission to be sure the filter is not clogged.

Make sure there are no leaks as well. Low fluid level would cause this as well.

Okay, I would start by servicing the transmission.

What would be your opinion about the flywheel or pressure plate being the cause?
