Default Reverse gear popout, anything I can do to check it out or is it f'd?

MY03, about 98k miles, new tranny fluid within the past 6k miles, I can shift it into reverse, but as soon as i give it gas and let off the clutch, immediately spits it back out. Is there anything I can check up on/look at/fix myself, or is it pretty much f@#ked and I need a rebuild or a new transmission? Thanks for the help guys.

Throw us a little more information on the condition of your drivetrain. Clutch, clutch fluid, does it grind in any gears, is the shifter notchy. etc etc.

Original OEM clutch, used Honda transmission fluid from hardtopguy.com when I changed the fluid. The rest of the gears seem to shift fine, smooth, no pop out problems, engage fine, just reverse.

Is this an all the time thing or happened a few times? Check to make sure the spring is allowing the shifter to move down and up also.

Definitely check and if so lube your shifter. It would be rare for there to be an reverse issue. Are you sure your actually completely engaging info reverse.
