Would need a drive to be honest to know whats wrong ,Now in my time cars had no syncro on first or second gear so you had to stop and be stationary to engage first gear which i still do if the cars moving abiet very slowly then i use second but a lot of modern cars like this have out of square engines unlike a old humber or morris with a long stroke engine and a starting handle for a flat battery morning.Now is this not going into gear when moving and ok when stationary or all the time ?

Transmission does not downshift to 1st at a stop in D but manually selecting 1st works
It sounds like you are having an issue with your transmission not downshifting to first gear when you come to a stop. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including a problem with the transmission control module, a malfunctioning shift solenoid, or a problem with the transmission itself.
Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the transmission fluid level and condition. If the fluid is low or dirty, it could be causing the transmission to malfunction.
  2. Check the transmission control module for any stored trouble codes. These codes can provide valuable information about the root cause of the problem.
  3. Inspect the shift solenoids for any visible damage or debris. If the solenoids are damaged or clogged, they may not be functioning properly.
  4. If none of these suggestions resolve the issue, it may be necessary to have a professional mechanic diagnose and repair the problem. They will have the necessary tools and expertise to properly diagnose and fix the issue with your transmission.

2004 Chevy Silverado 1500 4l60e will not accelerate in D in 1st gear. I have to put trans in manual 1st and get up to 2nd gear speed and then it can be put back in D. Come to stop in D have to repeat.
When you manually select gears, this over rides the the selected computer solenoids. Check codes. Replace the shift solenoids and the internal transmission harness.

Problems selecting 1st gear peugeot 106 1.1 zest
If the clutch is a problem you will have difficulty selecting 1st only as the gears would be spinning from the engine revs.. I would say that the front input shaft (clutch shaft) bearing is failing allowing miss alignment of the synchros and not allowing proper engagement of the gears synchro rings. It means removal and repair to the gear box so the clutch can be inspected while the box is out.

winter mode engages take of in 3rd gear. sounds like you have got a serious trans problem, mainly with lower gears. Can you manually select low or 1st gear and get it?
if you can then range selector switch could be faulty(neutral saftey switch) is the P,R,N,D,2,L lighting up in instrument cluster to display what gear your in? if its not working properly then range selection switch is faulty

2000 Audi A6 tiptronic 2.5tdi. Gearbox warning light on, no 5th
You need to give the car a scan, preferably with VCDS (or VAS at a dealer). If limp mode is activating (lit up gear selections), then it will be storing codes.
The fact that it works to a degree could be good news, the gear box has likely not failed. Could be the F125 selector switch, which is a common fail at this age.
