        Yep, its because Reverse doesn't have a synchro. So put it into a gear with one first, to make everything stop moving. [img]smile.gif[/img] Took me a while to figure this one out too [img]smile.gif[/img]

          i ususally use 3rd. if you can't get it into any gear with a synchro, keep it in neutral, pump the clutch twice & then try. happens very rarely tho
