Recently purchased this car. Looks like it has been sitting for some time. Fuel pump was out, replaced and runs great now.
But transmission will not go into 1st gear, except on occasions. Sometimes will not go into reverse. Sometimes I start it and everything works fine. This morning drove it and it was fine. Put it in park, then it would not go into any gear.
Fluid level is fine and looks fine, but has groaning noise in transmission.
Has anyone experienced this situation? Would this be transmission or torque converter, or something else? Eager to make repairs, but unsure of which way to go on this.

Its an electronic tranny, have someone do diagnostics first before you buy a whole trans and find out it was only wiring. does sound like internal problems though. try letting the trans sit in neutral for a few min while running to fill the convertor (The Chrysler trans had some issues in that department)
