ARRRGH! You may be doing it WRONG!
There's a special trick to engaging reverse on these cars...you grab the shift lever and LIFT IT UP and push it into where "first" should be.
Evidently a lot of people, even those who had these cars from new, never were informed they had to "lift", and a lot of trannys were worn out prematurely.
If you don't know this already, try it. Good luck!
