Hay guys!
Doesnt happen all the time but when im at a complete stop and want to put in reverse it sometimes wont allow me like if something was blocking it . Just want to know is this is a issue! ( Manual tranny)
When car is cold gears are rough up shifting 1 threw 3 after car is warm no problem

Here is the official info from page 208 of the Owner's Guide:
1. Make sure that your vehicle is at a complete stop before you shift into R (Reverse). Failure to do so may damage the transmission.
2. Move the gearshift lever into the neutral position and wait at least three seconds before shifting into R (Reverse).
Note: The gearshift lever can only be moved into R (Reverse) by moving it from left of 3 (Third) and 4 (Fourth) before shifting into R (Reverse). This is a lockout feature that protects the transmission from accidentally being shifted into R (Reverse) from 5 (Overdrive).
