I would be interested in knowing what car has a reverse syncro.
And why the Mini S doesn't have the same problem with reverse.

As for why some Mini's have problems? Why do some Porsche's have problems in the forward gears?

Synchro's are for when you want the gears and the collars on the shaft to match speeds before they engage the teeth. Since you must be stopped to engage the idler gear, you don't need a synchro to match the reverse gear's speed to the output shaft's speed.

My car has the same problem. Sometimes I can't shift into first and I have to declutch and depress the clutch again. Also, I have problem with second as well. Sometimes it feels like there is pressure against it when I try to shift to second (like trying to shift into first on some cars when it isn't so enough). Anyone know what it is?
