Q: Car wont move
I went to start my car and everything was
fine but when I put it in drive it started going
for a bit and then just stopped. All my fluids
been changed recently. All it does is just
revs up and everyonce in a while it will start
moving g again but then it just stops. I can't
go in drive or reverse it just won't move but
my rpms go up. How do I fix this problem.
My car has an automatic transmission.
