Gear shift (automatic) - When I try to put car in drive it stalls before it begins to actually drive?

1. MrRyan Says: I have a 95 Buick Regal Gran Sport. There is 150k miles on it.

When I turn ignition and release the safety brake and put it in drive.....it doesn't go anywhere. Sometimes I give my car a little gas. When I rev it up kinda hard.....then it gets "unstuck"....and starts to move.

Sometimes I wait for it until it goes into drive on its own....but it may take 1 - 2 minutes

What is it that needs to be fixed and how much would it cost?

Based on mileage of my car....how many more miles do I have until I begin having frequent problems with car and have to get new one?
2. springfield45 Says: If you like the car get a re manufactured transmission, if not no way to tell how long it will hold out.
3. Harry Says: You need to have the transmission worked on. Right now it appears the pump has problems. As far as other problems, that depends on the condition of the car and you.
