My 2010 ford focus stick shift manual will not go into reverse in cold weather. I just had synthetic oil change and power steering flush

Your gear oil is cold and thick. What grade oil did you use and what is the temperature that you are having a problem with the shifting? You may just have to plan your mornings so that you don't have to back up until the transmission warms up.
