I just replaced the clutch and slave cylinder on my 07 Kia Spectra and it works perfectly in gears 1-5...but I cannot get it to shift into reverse. At first I thought it was because the linkage was hitting some wiring that runs over the top of it but it's totally free. It feels a little difficult to shift it into reverse, but it seems like it's in gear...when you try and actually reverse the engine bogs down as if it's in gear and you aren't giving it enough gas but it doesn't go anywhere. A couple of times the shifter has stuck in between neutral and reverse so much so that I can't move it anywhere. I had to roll the car back and the shifter will just suddenly pop back out into neutral. Oh and this is a completely new issue as it never had an issue going into reverse before we replaced the clutch.
Anybody have an idea what the deal is? Any help is much appreciated.
