What are the reasons why the Bora cannot engage reverse gear?
1 Answers
The Bora cannot engage reverse gear for four reasons: first, the gear is not properly engaged and is still in neutral; second, the handbrake is not released; third, the clutch is not disengaged; fourth, the synchronizer in the transmission is stuck. Main uses of reverse gear: The function of reverse gear is not simple—it allows the vehicle to move in the opposite direction, enabling backward movement, a feature indispensable for any car. In manual transmission models, reverse gear also serves as a hill-holding brake; when parking on a downhill slope, engaging reverse gear can mechanically lock the drive shaft. How to use reverse gear: For manual transmission vehicles, after coming to a complete stop, first press the clutch and brake, then engage reverse gear, followed by a slight throttle operation with partial clutch engagement. For automatic transmission vehicles, the brake pedal must be pressed, and the safety button on the gear lever must be pressed or the gear shift lever must be pushed down to engage or disengage the R (reverse) gear. Both P (park) and N (neutral) gears can be directly switched to R gear, but when switching between forward gears and R gear, it is advisable to pause at N gear to reduce the impact of reverse oil flow in the transmission during gear shifting.
