First off the car is a 92 hatch.....I dont really drive the car alot considering it isnt registered or anything Ive maybe drove it 10 miles since i got it a couple months ago.....When i first got it it did not engage into first or reverse. I changed the fluid and installed poly bushings. Still didnt work then like a week or so later they magically somehow worked. Then about a month later i installed lowering springs and drove it around a mile or two at the most then just two days ago I go to move it and it dosent what so ever engage...I checked the linkages, fluids, and nothing.
What could possibly be a fix?

After talking to a buddy I kno he offered a 93 VX tranny (no grinds) with a almost new clutch for 250 installed...I still have to trailer the car about an hour away though....Is that a somewhat good deal?

 

seems like a good price with installation..

 

Turn your shifter around. Did it work?

 

^^ Nope it did not work....Ok anyone else car to chime in???

Once again the tranny will not engage into reverse...

 

Up.

 

just change the tranny. probsbly cheaper in the end and less of a headache

 

i dunno. perhaps your syncros or clutch not functioning? did you try putting it in another gear before going into 1st or reverse? try neutral-4th-reverse.

vx tranny is one you should stay away from. the gearing sucks. look around for a ex/si tranny for a little more. you wont be dissappointed.

 

Isnt reverse going to be the straight thru gear? So either the transmission is stuck ( missing a lot of teeth) or it is just a clutch thing. Have you had a clutch inspection? Did you look at the shift levers under the car?

 

Anyone else?
