ii was racing the other night and went back home,
went t sleep, next morning turn on the car let it warm up for a lil, put it in reverse and it didnt want to go in so i let it roll a lil, put in reverse and it wnt in grinding is my tranny out .all other gears work fine ,any help would be great thanx

 

put the clutch in and put it into 4th then put it into reverse...works for me.

 

if the 4th gear trick doesn't work. Try looking under the hood and seeing if your low on brake fluid in your clutch resevoir.

 

mine does that everyonce in a while.. i put it in first then into reverse and it goes all the way into gear

i do that every time i reverse!!

 

Yup me to.. first then reverse its a common problem

 

same here first then reverse. If not try fourth then reverse.

 

what is it about damn reverse that it's always hard to get into? i've always wondered that

 

i have the same problem too

god i hate reverse

 

i don't even have to put it into a different gear. if i'm on a bit of a slope i just barely let off the brake, stop, then put it into reverse. doesn't matter which direction i go.

 

possibly could be a clutch issue since you were probably pretty hard with it... would it go into other gears?

 

hahaha, i do the 4th gear then reverse too!

i always thought it was my throw-out bearing going bad though, which i still havent gotten around to fixing

 

have had that happen to me also, nothing big i just put it into a different gear then throw it in reverse

 

All Hondas do this if you put them into reverse right off the bat. Put it into 1st gear first. This happens on my Civic with 25,000 miles on the tranny, and my Accord with 187,000 miles on the tranny. Get used to it.

 

LMAO, this is all too true. I just pp it in first roll for a split second, and throw it back in fourth and works fine all the time......Funny i thought i was the only one. LEarn something new all the time..

PEace.........

This has happened on EVERY DA, DC, EK and EG car that I've ever worked with or who have had friends who have owned them. It's a Honda thing.

 

1st/4th =&gt; R here as well.

always wondered what the deal was but never question it..

 

Call me strange, but I've always gone from second to reverse.

 

happens to me in my DA sometimes... what i do is let the clutch out halfway then try again. doesn't always work the first time, but 2-3 tries and it'll go in gear. that grinding sound sure doesn't sound too good does it

 

my problem too. 1st then revearse.

its because reverse isn't syncronized like all the other gears, that and their toothed gears unstead of hellical - thats why it makes a whining noise when you're backing up

And if I remember correctly, it says to do this process in the owner's manual (91 Integra).

 

no.. exactly what they said. I think it only grinds when you are rolling back and try to stick in in reverse. it needs to be put in gear first.

if its stuck and putting it into 4th first doesnt work, put it in 1st just inch it forward, then put it back in reverse.

 

I get this problem every now and then but ive never tryed the 1st or 4th gear trick .. i just let the clutch out alittle bit and it will go right in the grinding sound also happens when the car revs up and u try to put it in gear or when the car is moving and u put in in reverse

seems like everyone gets this problem once in awhile
