Check your gear linkages that nothing has slipped. I had an old 3 speed van years ago and couldn't get reverse. Thought that the gearbox had gone but just about to remove gear box when I found a stone chipping off the road jammed in the linkage mechanism stopping reverse selection.

Reverse is usually the first to go, followed by first gear. Time for a transmission rebuild.

Will an auto transmission be damaged if I don't come to a complete stop before changing from reverse to park as in a parking lot barely moving?

Of course it will you idiot. Think about it... while the car is going forward you slap it into reverse and the gears need to stop turning the other way BEFORE the can turn the other way around or it will grind all the gears and then you have just ruined your transmission


Why does your 96 Honda Accord with 200000 miles make a noise only when backing up?

because the reverse gears are designed differently. Because you don't use reverse as much as the other gears it's make cheaper, so it ends up making a whine while you back up. hope this helped

Why does my car make a grrrr noise when I back it up?

The grrr noise you hear should be more like a whiring, this is because the reverse gear is a straight cut gear, while all the other gears are helical ( 1st ,2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th) when two straight cut gears meet there is more noise present due to the way the gears connect, as the reverse gear uses several small gears to change a clockwise motion into a anti-clockwise motion.


1994 Nissan sentra i am having problems when shifting from reverse the other 1-5 gears work great but when you go into reverse you have to literally hit the stick shift and the clutch is depressed?

Sounds like a problem with the idler gear in between the reverse gear and the layshaft.


How do you shift gears on an ATV?

It depends on the make and model. Some have a toe shifter like a motorcycle that is operated with the left foot. Other models have buttons on the handle bar that shifts gears electrically. Still other, newer ones are shiftless. You put it in high, low or reverse, and no shifting is required.

Your Chevy truck 1992 only runs in low gear and reverse?

Your tranny is in limp mode. The only gears that work are 2nd and reverse. Check the cable to your tranny and see if it is plugged all the way in. If it is then you have other electrical problems and need to have your truck looked at.


If a 1996 Nissan 240SX does not go in reverse but the other gears work fine could it be electrical or a transmission problem?

Electrical - check voltage to "reverse" selonid. With my knowledge on Nissans, it could also be a transmission problem. If it is a 5-speed, it is more than likely the tranny. Reverse is the gear that goes out first most of the time
