My car wouldn't shift manually at the trans either. I had the car at the NG06 and some of the best trans guys were there and everyone thought mine was in the trans also.My car you could pry on the shifter arms or force the shifter ashard as you wanted and it seemed like something in the trans was holding it from going into reverse. I disconnected the shifter cables and then tried to shift it manually at the trans and it worked. I thought this might cause this car also because he just had the trans out to change the clutch. Maybe his cables got screwed up while he did the repairs.When I pull an engine or trans I always put the cables out of the way but they still can get bent if not careful.
