The car will move, but theres a leak and not enough pressure in reverse, and the direct clutches slip.

So if your not using a pro-tree brake then you can put it reverse and been fine?

The CK brake is a Pro-Tree design but it is different than most.
It does not require the button for reverse.

Many other brakes do, because as correctly stated previously, they leak in reverse, and when you apply the button it kills the leak and you get full pressure.
