This is driving me nuts but sometimes I cannot get the damn transmission in reverse. It inevitably happens when I have parked somewhere with a brick close to my front end so I cannot roll forward enough to right things. I then have to roll the car back with my foot so I can roll forward and get it into reverse. My WRX and other manual cars used to do this from time to time but it wasn't this bad all I would have to do is roll forward a few inches and then it would get int reverse just fine.

Anyone else have this problem?

Only mods are wheels and tires nismo lsd and 3.9 fd

 

nope

 

First gear, then into reverse

 

Yeah that is what I am doing.

Only became a problem recently

 

depress then press the clutch all the way in...select gear

 

I do this and it works every time. After pressing and releasing Ill go into first before shifting to reverse.

 

Mine will have a hard time going in to reverse sometimes as well. I'll just stick it in first gear and get it to move just a few inches ahead, then go into reverse and it will grab and go. Sounds like yours requires a little more work though...
I would say to just give your self enough room to drive it forward a bit in first gear and then put it in reverse. See if that works.

 

Sure..mine's an 08.
Aside from rolling forward....
Make SURE you fully depress the shift **** before rolling it over. I find that if I do it too quickly....... moving a tad sideways at the same time... it won't
go into reverse..

 

Reverse is completely gone now! No amount of rolling fixes it.
