My transmission won't go in reverse
I got a 99 type sh prelude. My cars does not go in reverse and it shifts rough. Does any 1 have a solution to this problem? And what is the problem?

have a similar problem a quick and not permanent fix is go to like a parking lot and i had to push in clutch try reverse if it didnt work repeat until it finally went in. I tried a lot and it finally went in and rev pretty high and go in revese for awhile put alil gas on it and repeat a few times. Im going to eventually get a new clutch but thats what someone told me would help for awhile

First step- change transmission fluid.
Sometimes I have this problem too. I just put it in 1st and then reverse, that usually works. Or try releasing the clutch pedal, blipping the gas, and try engaging reverse again.

i have the same problem. everything goes in rough and i gotta pump the cluth to get sum geras in sumtimes. dont know if its the transmission fluid or the clutch master cylinder cuz my brake fluid in there is all filthy, gonna change both. hopefully thats the problem.

its probably a syncro... this exact thing has happened to me when i let my brother borrow my car... he came back to tell me that there was no reverse... i have to push the car backwards for a reverse for a period of time.. what i did was change out the whole tranny...

Re: (tkevin07)
I had this happen to me and it was from missing 2nd to 3rd and bending a shift fork....but that was a big 92-95 problem cause they were aluminum....then they went to steel 96 and up i do beleive. rare that it would happen to and older one but just and idea.

noobs. put it into a foward gear (except 5th cuz it has a lock out) for a second then slide it into reverse. the transmission has to stop since reverse is not synchro'd. happens on almost all cars.
