2006 Toyota Solara won't shift stays in nuetral

Asked by tammey1052 Mar 29, 2023 at 03:09 AM about the 2006 Toyota Camry Solara SE Convertible

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I pulled into a parking lot and my toyota stopped
shifting. It was in drive but wouldn't move when I tried
to drive. Will not go into reverse either. I pushed it in a
parking spot and notice a very large amount of
transmission fluid on the ground. It also slightly grinds
when shifted into partk even though it still acts like its
in nuetral. It my car junk now or can it be a simple fix?

It won't go without fluid , there's a very slim chance it was blown out the breather tube but you need to find the leak and have it fixed . Beyond that maybe you should look into something else

You have one of my favorite cars. I'm guessing you have over a hundred-thousand miles on it, and this was just a mishap that happened when you entered the parking lot. You probably hit something that dented the trans pan and caused a dent that opened up the gasket. Just have the car towed to a transmission shop or your regular mechanic for repairs. If you didn't try to drive it too far, fixing it shouldn't cost much. And get a complete trans service while you're art it..... I love ragtops.
