ok i changed out my Imput shaft bearing on my tranny and all seemed to go smooth but after installing everything i have no reverse gear, i put everything back according to a real good how to and the honda tech book, it dosent even want to try and go in, does anyone have any suggestion on what the prob might be.


car 1996 hatch
tranny s40 i think is the number
motor d16y7

 

i had a similiar scenario...

it felt like a brick wall when i tried puttin it into reverse, and after trying, moving the shifter around felt very resistant. If thats your case... heres a quick solution. I did this and now 2 months later... (this acutally happened last night) my tranny wouldnt go into reverse again. So do this at your own risk.

heres what to do:

with the car rolling backwards, slowly let the clutch out and try to jam it into gear. It wont be a smooth process, but it'll get in and work from there on out. (at least it did for me and i read about this here on HT)
