Car won't start, felt like transmission disengaged (?)

ditto that, I thought that one could be left off...

Any way, our car had the ECM combined with the TCM, as far as I know. So no codes is no electrical problem, you have a mechanical problem. You're trans is dead, most likely. So if you have no gears it sounds like a fluid problem, maybe pressure.

What fluid did you use?

Should have said something to that effect when I responded yesterday. Pretty much the only linkage between engine and transmission that could cause both problems. Glad you got it figured out!

weird.

Flywheel = manual trans
Flexplate = automatic trans

either way, they both have a starter gear, but they also bolt to the engine and bolt to the trans...
