Just curious but do any of you have problems when shifting to reverse? Sometimes I get a weird noise when shifting to reverse and sometimes it's harder than other times even though the clutch is pressed all the way. Any inputs?

just got my 2007 yaris sedan about a week now, and i noticed the same thing.. i thought that there might be something wrong with the clutch/tranny.. hmm but it seems like almost everyone's experiencing it.

mine does the same thing shift into another gear before going into reverse and it will shift in fine.

Please see this video:

The reason is simple: the reverse gear does not has a synchronizer. Therefore, you can simply put it in the 1st gear to synchronize, then shift into the reverse gear. I have tried this trick, and it works!

Any gear other than 2nd will do the trick, right?
