I have a 2000 Tacoma Pre-Runner (2wd) with the V6 motor and Auto transmission. I am having an intermittent problem that the dealer cannot find (naturally) since it does not fail for them.

The problem is: I back out of a parking space, shift from reverse to drive, and the truck won't move. I can feel the transmission engage, but stepping on the gas does not move the truck. Shifting between park/reverse/neutral and back to drive doesn't make any difference. The only thing I have found that seems to work (3 out of 3 times) is shifting into park, turn off motor, restart, then drive works fine.

Any ideas? I don't even know where to start with this one.

Fluid level is fine, mileage is low, never had any other problems or symptoms.
