    Bmw won't move forward when in drive
    My 94 740i was driving fine, up until yesterday. I started her up put it in drive and took my foot off the brake and nothing. If I put my foot all the way down on the gas the car will budge, but just barely. I'm wondering if it's the transmission, or torque or even the brake switch. FYI it reverses normally- all drives do not work.

    I don't think so, as it goes into reverse normally, also there was no prior indication of a problem. But I'll look into it- Any other suggestions??

    Clutch packs likely need replacing; i.e. complete transmission rebuild.
