Reverse Gear

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2007 MINI Cooper, 2006 MINI Cooper, 2005 MINI Cooper, 2004 MINI Cooper, and 2003 MINI Cooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Reverse gear is incorporated into the 1st and 2nd gear hub, which is fixed to the output shaft. When reverse gear is selected the 1st and 2nd selector shaft is moved, a fixed arm on the shaft interlocks with the reverse gear arm, moving the gear into mesh with the fixed hub.

NOTE:

1st and 2nd selector fork does not move during reverse engagement. An interlock mechanism includes an inhibitor to physically prevent reverse gear from being inadvertently selected directly from 5th gear.
