I have a 1 litre corsa gls w reg and just rececntey it has been making a starnge rattling noise when at higher revs. It seems to be more noticable when the clutch is engaged and also it whines when letting the clutch out. Has anyone had a similar problem or know whats rong with it ?

Cheers

better off looking on the net for a full clutch kit, make sure its got the bearing,
then take it to the garages n compare some prices, its not that difficult to do

Aye piece of piss to do, i think book time is only around the 1.5hr mark, cost of clutch, as a rough guess no more than £35. If taken to a garage you should get change out of £150-170. All as a rough guess. If you can find someone good to do it cash then even better....
