On my (almost brand new) TDi300 it was the transfer box. There was a bit of warning though.
 
I dont know a great deal about gear boxes i must admit, but have always been told for any gear box fault first replace the oil as causes most problems
 
It doesn't have to be the auto box that is at fault.

Does it move in diff lock?

Does it move if you select 1,2 or 3 rather than just D? Does it move in R but not in D?
no movement in any gear at all, i had it pressure tested and there was no pressure, oil was drained from the sump and that was in a poor state after being changed a few ago.
 
No, oil was changed 3 weeks ago, mech next door reckoned the oil i drained off strongley suggested burnt out box
