There are no unusual lights. However, normally even with the car sitting still (I think) you can change between the forward gears, at least 1st & 2nd. Can no longer see that.
I looked under the car, everything appears normal. When placed in gear there is nothing that is visible trying to move....but it would certainly be nice if it were something like that. I'll investigate that further. Meanwhile other thoughts, ideas appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. Would a Durametric provide useful data?

I have had the car less than 10K and prior unknown service history. I haven't serviced the trans at all & since it's sealed can't see the fluid. Since I have had the car the transmission has performed flawlessly at all ranges in automatic and manual (seldom used) modes. While I'm hoping otherwise, it has the feel of a serious mechanical failure. Any info is appreciated.

Hi All: ('04 C2) Tiptronic car will not not move under its own power... pulled away from stop under aceleration and at the point of expected upshift went to empty revs. D, M & R unresponsive & when attempting to put in P slow grinding sound that subsides in 3 secs w/o Park engaging. Pushed backwards while in R, slow vague rotating metalic noise. Ideas, info, suggestions, pointers etc. appreciated. No prior issues with transmission car has 64K mis. on it.
Tiptronic Failure - Info Needed
in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)

After having the car towed to my house I found that ALL of the bolts on the CV joint connecting to the transmission on the passenger side are backed completely out. Haven't had it up in the air yet, but just by feel seems like one might be sheered off at the end. Can't tell for sure. Looks like others on the site have experienced this problem, which prompted me to check. Looks like maybe large caliber bullet dodged.
