5th or Reverse?

Has anyone had trouble put the gear in Reverse smoothly and going into 5th instead?

I've found that it simply won't go into reverse unless the car is completely stopped.

I have never had a problem getting into reverse but then again, I deliberatly "bang" the shifter over! I guess it is a "muscle car" thing that I got used too! Bill

Yes i have had that problem. Would either go in 5th or grind into reverse. Found it easier if I shift into 1st then reverse.
Hope this helps.
