Just curious to see how many of you swapped out your oem tranny fluid. If youre still running it, how many miles do you have on the fluid?
Amsoil Syncromesh at 5k miles. Currently pushing almost 10k.

Anyone have any Reverse lock out issues? Sometimes it just doesn't want to go into R...I get there eventually but it fights me a bit.
Swap the fluid with Amsoil, I promise, reverse gear issue will instantly go away

Try going into first and then shifting into reverse. Works 95% of the time of me. Old school trick from the days when reverse wasn’t a synchronized gear.

Haha ya good tip, that's essentially how I get into R when it sticks. Still, i'm surprised these problems exist in a brand new car... it's not like this is new technology.
