Recently I have adjusted my clutch so that the bite point is lower down (ie the pedal is closer to the floor) as it seemed a little high before compared to other cars i have driven (including other corsas) but now it keeps re-adjusting itself to back to where it was before. Can anyone tell me why or how to fix it??

Any help is appreciated, Cheers

mine does this also. Although i have never bothered with it as it is easy to adjust back.

I thought about putting another nut on the thread as this would allow the too nuts to lock together in therory stopping it from moving.
