So every once in awhile, maybe 2 time out of 10, when i turn my car on and put it in reverse to back out of the garage, it wont completely go into reverse (its a 5spd). i go to put it in reverse and it doesnt go all the way, and when i try to go back, the car just revs. anybody else have this happen?

 

dat happen in my srt-4 when i had it...i had to jam it inn reverse..cause it wouldnt going in all they way....yea it did rev...and it wasnt moving eithter....dont know why would it cause it...did u get it check out>?

 

sometimes my reverse grinds a little...

 

yea mines been like that....sumtimes wont go into reverse....then u get out in the road and its a pain to get into 1st....my car only has 2000 miles on it....kinda pisses me off

i hate to rip gear in it....and tear it up but what else can i do....i mean goin to the dealership there gonna say sorry nuthin we can do....

 

i havent taken it in, i have just ignored it up until now. i figured maybe someone on here has an explanation. and when i finally get it in gear it does grind and make that horrible noise.

 

i tried pumping the clutch pedal a few times...idk random idea....but that didnt help...it feels like its not the transmission but the shifter itself just wont go into reverse.....like sumthing is in the way and blocking that gear...but once i get into first and go its fine

 

pull the center console cup holder & check the shifter cable bracket clip, i already fixed couple cobalt ss/sc in my dealer(i am chevy tech) came from factory with shifter cable out of this bracket.

 

once in a great while mine does this..but i dont think i put the clutch in all the way haha im still a noob

 

Mine does it on occasion, i usually just pump the clutch 2-3 times & it goes

 

will definatly check this thnx

 

shift to second first before shifting to reverse because its not syncronized, shifting to second ensures everything in the tranny has stopped.


on this same token i can shift to reverse while moving forward without any grinding - this shouldnt be possible but the balt dose it, and no i dont shift to reverse for fun, i was checking if the balt had a reverse lockout like my other car and was surpreised when it slipped in

 

Mine does this every now and then. I just shift back to first, then back to reverse and it goes in fine.

 

I just ordered an SS/SC so i cant say on this car yet, but that happens to me like every other time i try to go into reverse on my civic SI. I just put it into 1st (without releasing the clutch obviously) and then put it back into reverse. It takes several attempts sometimes. It has always been that way and the clutch/tranny is fine.
