[Mgs] Overdrive Noise/Shifting Problem

I have experienced this "slippage" in reversed a couple of times.  Stopped,
pushed the wiper stock forward and then started reversing again.  As
mentioned good practice is to ensure that the overdrive switch is turned
off, although I forget sometimes.  And no, damage is not necessarily done.

Can the overdrive actually work in reverse?  Can the pump in the overdrive
unit actually build pressure to engage the unit in the reverse direction?

As Max said, damage already done!!

Sorry.
