What causes noticeable jerking when shifting into reverse gear?

[OMalia]

Noticeable jerking when shifting into reverse gear is typically caused by transmission issues, specifically clutch plate slippage. Here are the related causes: 1. Damage to the reverse gear synchronizer. Solution: Repair or replace the reverse gear synchronizer. 2. Damage to the reverse gear teeth, such as broken or chipped teeth. Solution: Repair or replace the reverse gear teeth. 3. Damage to the reverse gear bearing, or poor bearing lubrication causing friction noise. Solution: Repair or replace the bearing. 4. Releasing the clutch too quickly. Try shifting at 3000 RPM - the jerking will be significantly reduced. When downshifting, wait for the RPM to drop before shifting.
