OOPS>>>>>
i missed that your transmission is an automatic
please ignore the bad advice in this post.

Your clutch is not disengaging enough.

Adjust your clutch cable.

Where would I find the clutch and cable on an AUTOMATIC? Been looking for 3 hours and just can't seem to find it.

When you say "the car will not go in gear"

Do you mean you can not move the gear selector out of park?
Or you can move the selector in to all of the different positions and the transmission only makes a grinding sound when you are in gear?
