Nissan Pulsar 2013: Why won't it shift into reverse?

I have a 2013 Nissan Pulsar manual transmission that’s done 31,000 km. I can't select reverse, but the other gears are fine. Simply won't shift into reverse. Problem exists both with engine running or turned off. Clutch seems okay. No transmission leaks. What is the problem?

Try gently releasing the clutch while you’re holding the lever in the reverse position. It’s probably an adjustment issue, it could be a clip that’s broken, and nothing serious. I would take it to a mechanic who should be able to tell you exactly what is wrong with it.
