Maybe the synchronizors (if thats how you spell it) are shot to hell... basically they guide the shifter into gear. Thats all that i can think of. good luck

Thats all that i can think of. good luck Synchro gears dont really "guide" the shifter into gear, but are secondary gears attached to the main gear that "synchronize" the shifting by speeding up that gear to match the engine speed. Essentially the same as double clutching. Worn synchros wouldnt be the case for reverse though, as the reverse gear is a straight cut gear (no synchro). That is why if your car is rolling a bit and you try to put it into reverse it will sometimes grind. |
