It takes a hugh amount of effort to "break" though the gate and get it into reverse. Is there something wrong with the flash job that has caused the problem? Any advice would be great as my wife could not possibly select reverse like it is now.Thanks everyone in advance.I had the same problem mate with a generic tune. The problem is that the six speed has a reverse lock out soleniod but the five speed doesn't you must have the MK1 tune like I did.Take the car to CV performance they will fix it for you.Cheers Alf.

I knew it had to be a lock out solenoid and the base tune for a 5 speed says it all.
