/\ as he said, to get to it is a bugger might as well get a clutch kit and do the lot at once, clutch, bearing and clutch release plate

depends if ya fit it ya self, what corsa is it, if its a gsi with pot flywheel either the gearbox has to come out or the engine lol, the rest can be done through the inspection hole under the box, £50max for kit maybe less, i would say £150-200 fitted at a guess

nah, you only really need to centre em up to get the box spindle through the friction plate. once the box is in and you press the clutch, it centres up properly...
sounds like to me your clutch isn't disengaging properly, try adjusting the clutch cable maybe??
my release bearing did a similar thing before it went, gears became increasinglt hard to select, juddering due to the clutch never disengaging.....the the bearing went pop on the M1...

my 1995 sport (x14xe) does not have the access plate on the end of the box but only had a standard flywheel, not a pot flywheel as expected with the hwole box out to change clutch fiasco
