    I doubt reverse has a syncro... will crunch if your rolling / above idle speeds very easily... like any most gearboxes i believe.

    I know some car have them, but seems like a waste... polo prob not. Haven't really tried popping into reverse at 2k revs so i couldn't be sure.

    Wouldn't recommend trying it either.

    I was in at the VW dealer this morning, and had them look up my VIN in regards to the recall. Mine came up clear, so thats all good.
