Hi there i have just bought a 2008 ve calais sports wagon v6 5 speed auto from the auctions
The car has no drive in all ranges . Though engine runs fine. I disconnected the battrie over night and reconnected it again in the morning , then started the engine and it made a grinding type of noise at the back of the engine ( gearbox ) while making the noise it would go into gear and drive about 10/20 feet untill the noise stopped and then the car would not drive in any gear at all .
Would this be a torque conveter failure? Or blocked filter ?

It needs an overhaul. Something has broken.
