Hi all,

Can anyone shed any light on my clutch cable problems?

I've had mr corsa for 6 and a half years (it had a small bump on the drivers front comer before I bought it) and in those 6 and a half years I have changed 6 or 7 clutch cables. They keep snapping at the peddle.

I had my latest go on Tuesday and the one before that was changed only 4-6 months earlier. I have even changed the clutch peddle around 2-3 years ago o try and solve the problem but to no ovail!

Can anybody shed any light on what could be causing this please?

Thanks Matt

Sorry i'm typing on my iPhone and for me or my it reads as mr!!

I believe it's routed properly. It's always fed from peddle through groove then into bulk head, from there it goes behind engine and there is a clip it attaches to using the rubber bung, then into a metal troff type router and then round to the gearbox/clutch holder in engine bay.

Does that sound right?

To be honest I'd only notice the metal channel bit this last time although it runs basically in the same position so I don't know if that would make a difference. I tend to notice that sometimes whn driving I hear a creaking sound from the peddle when depressing.
