Hey, Just happened today so I am searching for possible scenarios. Put the car in drive, and with no brake applied, it does not move forward at idle. Apply some gas and it takes about 3 seconds for the tranny to kick in to gear. Fluid level is fine with no discoloration. Don't think its a CV joint or anything else in the front wheel drive because I can get both wheels spinning no problem. Located this website that says it could be a stuck throttle valve in the tranny?
