My 2001 Honda CRV has 145k miles and a 5 speed manual transmission. For the past few days, I’ve had trouble getting it to shift into reverse gear. Yesterday, it would not go into reverse at all. The clutch fluid level looks OK. What else could be the problem?

Honda CRV Won't Shift into Reverse

Will it shift into reverse with the engine “off”? If it will then I think you have clutch issues. Reverse is difficult to shift into if the clutch is not fully disengaging.
