griding in reverse
question about grinding? when a gear grinds what exactly takes place? in my 89mustangit tends to grind everytime i go into reverse, well not everytime but often. It sounds horrible and i need to get it to stop. Is there something im doing wrong? if u put it in second then first it helps sometimes but not always... HELP

Thats really common, just put it in a forward gear and then reverse. Reverse isn't syncroed, so if thegears are not stopped it will grind. I dont know if a t5 is a constant mesh or a sliding gear trans, but ether wat it is caused by a gear or a dog not fully engaging.

Im so glad I read this posting. I have slight grinding when going into reverse too & I was nervous about it. The rest of the shifting is smooth,...</P>
