I'd say adjust the clutch cable!

Does you clutch pedle sit lower than the rest??

possibly ur gear linkages have gone... they cost about 12 quid to replace all the plastic bushings totally worth it... there a bastard to change though

ive just had that problem found that where you adjust ur clutch the cable as twisted and was slightly adjusting itself worth checking urs is ok and just nipping it up a lil hope this helps

[corsamatt2008]

a mechanic told me it was common only on the 3 cylinder (GLS) model, it must use a differnet gearbox and clutch to the 4 cylinder 1.2 version. my girlfriend and i both have gls corsa's and this has happened a few times, the clutch has to be pressed fully into the footwell to avoid grinding.
