when the cables adjusted to the full thou thats when u got problems. like mine

I had the same problem mate, just need to adjust the clutch cable ;) I had to adjust mine every few weeks for some reason... then when i had done it it was sweet....a few weeks / months later it would grind again....but it was so simple to do i never bothered having it looked at...i just adjusted it again ;)

raver and xhale2007. u dont have gsi's f15 bearboxes y any chance as this happened to me 4 months ago. got so bad all of a sudden it ripped the thrust bearing to bits. now its happening again after putting a new clutch, cable and thrust bearing :(

i have the same problem as u raver. unsure of the problem yet, if u find out, let me know mate.

i just ordered a performance clutch (got it cheap from soemone on here) so hopefully that will fix it!

no thats the clutch itself
try adjusting it if no joy its a new clutch

my clutch is slipping and its hard to get it in 1st and 2nd sometimes, but is fine when the engine is off. Is this a clutch cable too?

New clutch cable mate.

cable may have streched?
is the clutch slipping?
can you put it in gear easy with the engine turned off?

My car suffers badly with the clutch cable as from this Wednesday it would have been adjusted 4 times.

Does anybody else have this problem.
The clutch pedal sits lower than the brake and when I press to change gear I really have to force the gearstick into gear. Especially in 1st and 2nd.
When I go to put it in reverse it makes a loud grinding noise. The geezer at Vauxhall says theres no point in having a new clutch cable cuz it will be a fault in the gear box? I fink he is a twat but is he right?
Has anybody else had the same problems?

I have also found that when i put my foot underneath the clutch pedal and lif it upwards, from then on the car changes gear nice n smoothly for a short period?
