My car starts but when i put it in drive and press on the gas it won't move Mechanic's Assistant: Have you noticed an increase in fuel consumption? And how does the vehicle start—same as usual? Yes it starts up fine. Haven't noticed a change in fuel consumption Mechanic's Assistant: What is the make/model/year of your car? Nissan altima 2005 Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Altima yourself? What have you tried so far? No. No diy experience. If I can get a mobile mechanic I'd prefer that Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? It's at home in my driveway so its not in the way. And I'm not carrying any cash at the moment. Just card.

Okay that sounds like a transmission issue I would have the transmission oil inspected first and also check the codes with a scan tool

Ok
Automotive Expert
Just post back if you have anymore questions

Is there an option to have a mechanic come out and look at it or is this the wrong service for that?
Automotive Expert
You might need to have a shop check that type of issue

Ok thank you for your time.
Automotive Expert
Most Mobil mechanics don't do transmission work at home

Ok I can have it towed.
