No, as long as you come to a complete stop before you put it in park.
Yes, you could severely damage a transmission by shifting into reverse while moving forward. But the odds of the transmission actually going into reverse are not good because there are safety mechanisms in place to prevent it from happening.
it prevents you from starting the engine while the transmission is in either DRIVE or REVERSE
transmission leak in reverse only
The car might have an automatic cut off to either disengage the transmission or cut off the engine. Otherwise you will rip apart the transmission.
this is simple definitly not if the car was sitting in one spot the whole time it was washed then it could not have been damaged whether it was in neutral drive reverse it does not matter. sincerely Cody
Your transmission could be going bad
You would have to try it yourself and see. Please report back your results here.
possibly a transmission code from the ecm. i would have this checked soon. transmission damage possible.
On the vast majority of modern cars today it is impossible to actually shift to reverse while driving at high speed. Modern transmissions have an override safety device that prevents the transmission from going into reverse at any speed forward that would harm the transmission. You could put the selector in reverse, but the transmission would not shift to reverse. On older transmissions without this feature, you would probably destroy the transmission and possible have an accident.
It goes into reverse gear, nothing else.
If it runs empty transmission failure If it is leaking on hot part of engine or exhaust - fire risk If it is leaking near tire track loss of traction could occur
AnswerYou mean you forward and reverse while the engine is shut off????? How can that be?Funny man that guy. Have you checked your fluid level? Also checked to see if your trans oil looks or smells like it has been burnt. Hopefully your only low on trans fluid, otherwise you will need to take it in for repairs.
