How to engage reverse gear in the Baojun 510 6-speed manual transmission?
2 Answers
Whether it's the reverse gear in the Baojun 510, 530, or 560, engaging reverse in Baojun vehicles requires lifting the leather ring under the gear lever and shifting to the upper left of the first gear position. Generally, it goes deeper than the first gear. Related details are as follows: 1. The Baojun 510 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum output power of 112 horsepower (82kW) and a peak torque of 147 N·m. The transmission system is matched with a 6-speed manual gearbox. On the side of the Baojun 510 body, it features an upward-sloping waistline design and adopts a floating roof design. 2. Depending on the configuration, the Baojun 510 will be equipped with features such as vehicle stability control system, cruise control, tire pressure monitoring, one-button start, automatic start-stop, automatic air conditioning, and a panoramic sunroof.
When shifting into reverse gear on the Baojun 510 six-speed manual transmission, I always make sure the car is completely stopped and engage the handbrake to prevent rolling. As an experienced manual driver, I know the reverse gear position is at the top-left of the shift pattern - unlike other gears that engage directly, it requires a special operation: use your left index finger to gently press down the button on the shift knob (it feels like a small dimple), then smoothly push it to the top-left until you hear a clear 'click' confirming engagement. If you try to shift without pressing the button, the lever will resist - this is a safety feature to prevent accidental reverse engagement while moving forward. Always keep the clutch fully depressed during this operation to avoid gear grinding. After engaging, check if the reverse indicator lights up on the dashboard before gradually releasing the clutch to test. Familiarizing yourself with the shift pattern before daily driving can save you trouble.
