car feels rough in reverse

from day one, i have noticed the car seems a little rough when backing out of garage. it is subtle, but definitely not as smooth. it feels as if the gears are grinding a little. i always get out slowly with my brake gently pressed and steering wheel turned to back my car out onto street.

i don't know if this is a problem or just normal for this car. anyone has noticed the same thing?

I bet it's because your wheels are turned.

Do you notice it every time you back out or only when your wheels are turned?
it can be rough due to being in reverse gear which is shorter than the rest. like my car which is stick seems to be very rough too. seems all the same on manual cars and makes a funny sound

i think it happens only when wheels are turned.
Then it is because the wheels are turned, nothing to worry about. I'll feel for it next time I back the F up :cool:
