Hi,
First post here. Bought a 2012 Versa S / base 1.6L 5MT several months ago and recently the car has developed this strange problem: You cannot shift into reverse from a dead stop; however, if you allow the car to creep forward and then select reverse, it catches every time. It only takes a few inches of forward movement for reverse to start working again. Just enough to let the transmission line up, and then reverse works fine.
Is there some sort of adjustment that can be made as it feels like something is slightly "off" in the transmission? It seems to have gotten worse recently and when reverse doesn't work, something in the transmission seems like it does not "catch," for lack of a beter term.
I already took it to a dealer and they performed "ADJUSTED MT CABLE ASSY PERFORMED ROAD TEST" but the problem is now worse.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Edit: Reverse seems to engage fine when the engine is off, I can back out of parking spots without a problem if I put the car into reverse and then start the car.
