Went for a ride a few days ago and lost reverse. Could not get in gear and got grinding. Stopped immediately and pushed the car to turn it around.

The car will go in reverse if not running or sometimes if the tranny is not hot. All other forward gears are fine no slipping or grinding. Thought it may the reverse synchro until I found out there is no synchro for the reverse gear. Does not seem like a throw out bearing or clutch as I think if this was the case, I would have issues with all the gears.

I am puzzled and wondered if anyone had some thoughts.

Thanks for the help.
