The car won't move out of park, just revs the engine, no matter what gear I put it in, the linkage is moving.

    Do you hear/feel the shifter engaging from gear to gear or does the linkage move smoothly? You could have an internal transmission problem with the shifter mechanism.

    I AGREE WITH HERB, DO YOU FEEL ANY DETENT OR FEEL THE SHIFTER CLICK INTO EACH GEAR LIKE IT DID BEFORE?
    IF SO THEN POSS. TRANS. DAMAGE AS IN PUMP NOT TURNING. I GUESS THE FLUID IS AT THE CORRECT LEVEL?

    IF IT WENT INTO ANY GEAR THEN PUMP IS WORKING. YOU NEED TO GET IT LOOKED AT.

    IT NEEDS TO BE "LOOKED" AT TO ACTUALLY SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.
