Willing to bet that its the Syncros? When was the last time that you changed the Tranny fluid? When you change do you use 10-W40? or Honda manual tranny Fluid? Or other?

 

well i just add tranny fluild to it , iam not sure because all the other gears work beside that one , i know my tranny is not bad... my boy said it might be my clutch master clynidar ( or just the clutch) ...

 

oh yeah i use 10-w40 is that bad?, i herd it good to use the honda tranny fliuld u get from the dealer ship.

 

Well the 10-w40 is what is used from the factory, case it is cheap and a good break in fluid. If you call up Honda and ask about Tranny fluid they will insist on Honda MTF!!! So they know that is better.
I have a Prelude and they are known to have tranny issues and i changed to GM syncromesh. That stuff is AMAZING!!!! Two thumbs up.
DOHC_HATCH. I'm a dumb *** Reverse does not have a Syncro! The way that i avoid the "problem" is that i put the car in forward and let the clutch half way out and then it allways slides right into reverse!!
Try that first

 

Great thanks it work Oh yeah by my fire wall u know the clutch master clyndiar well it seems to be moist around in that area ... it may be leaking or so well thanks again man ( had me worried wuz thinking about getting an R tranny lol) Peace an thanks everyone!!!

 

Yea but can you get it into the other gears??? If it is leaking it may not be actuating the slave cylinder which in turn doesn't disengauge the clutch all the way... That may be the problem but it would also be hard to get into the other gears as well then...

 

i dunno , iam just going to take it to inline pro an have them take a look at it, i might need to get a new clutch or something lol ...
