i was out driving today and while shifting from 2nd to 3rd i mis-shifted and grinded the hell out of 5th. now there is a problem getting in and out of reverse. sometimes it will go into reverse fine and other times it will be hard as hell. getting out of reverse is always giving me a problem. it feels like reverse doesn't want to let go when going back to neutral.

i next to nothing about the tranny internals so any thoughts would be appreciated. i still have 5k left on the warranty. do you forsee any problems with getting this covered?

thanks in advance

 

Sorry to hear Lance, weren't you planning on going some work in that area anyway?

Sounds like warranty work to me!

 

Check out the warranty on it. I'm not an expert on trannies either, but does how does it feel when shifting through the rest of the gears?

 

Im having the same problems but on my onther teg it won't go into reverse
here is my post

You could have worn out the the synchro for reverse, which will need a total tranny removal and overhaul. It sucks I know.

Reverse has a synchro?

 

reverse and 1st gear have no synchros.

 

First has synchros, reverse doesn't though.

 

1st through 5th engage and release perfectly fine it's only reverse having the issue

metal-x - have you changed your tranny fluid? that was one thing i had thought about doing but it's possible the dealer might want to do it. *shrugs*

yeah I flushed the tranny fluid but that didnt' help

 

Maybe it's that reverse change holder thing or whatever it's called? I don't remember the name of the part, but I could point it out on a diagram.
