Hard to get into reverse?
My MN6 has developed a problem with the trans. It's hard to get into reverse. It doesn't matter if the car is running or not.
Sometimes it goes in and other times it won't. 1st - 6th are fine, just reverse. Clutch fluid is fresh and full with no air (I bled it to be sure).
Any ideas?
It's getting an alignment today, so I'll be able to look at it went it gets home.

Ours is difficult to get into reverse some times, but mostly doesn't like staying in reverse. We've got to hold it in or it can and does pop out.
We changed the ATF in the M6 with Amsoil ATF and it seems to be a little better than before, but that's hard to determine.
Many people swear by Royal Purple ATF for the hard shifting M6 problems. It's not a very costly project. $50 at most if you do it yourself. Can't hurt to try that first.

So far.....
Chris,
No codes. I checked them right away.
sliebl,
I've got Royal Purple in there already.
hotwheels57,
You might be on to something. I hope I don't need to swap in the backup trans.
