diggerbucket 0 Posted September 1, 2008 My VR6 has started sticking a bit in reverse, it goes in easily but sometimes needs a good wiggle and pull to get it out again. All the other gears are fine. Had a quick search and can only find problems with gears not going in, not the opposite! What's wrong with it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diggerbucket 0 Posted January 3, 2009 Drove the car for the first time in a while today, and was reminded of this problem. Anyone got any ideas as to why I can't get out of reverse??! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted January 3, 2009 I would try and reset your linkages,lube them up on the box side,make sure its alll nice and free. Try a oil change,try a fully synthetic lube/additive. If all else fails then its probably a box/indent fault. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted January 4, 2009 Used to get this fairly frequently on my valver until I changed to fully synthetic (VW) gearbox oil. It's sometimes a little stiff to get out of reverse but much less frequently and not as bad when it does. When it had the mineral oil in I sometimes had to release the clutch again slightly and reverse the car a bit more to get it to release. There's nothing wrong with the box, it's just a little old and worn. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
