Switching to reverse problem - Toyota Yaris Forums

Keep in mind that the reverse gear is not synchronised. So, a a bit of finess and common sense is prudent when accessing reverse.

BTW, most other cars do no have synchros in reverse gear either.

Try shifting to 2nd before you shift to reverse and you'll never hear grinding again.

+1 every manual car Ive driven for the most part was a little sticky when going into reverse. And Ive driven a lot of manual cars probably more than most. Used to work at a dealer having to move around cars and park them on the lot.
