Hey, I've never driven any other corsa than mine, but when I go to depress the clutch, I've got a little bit of play before it actually starts working. Is this an easy adjustment to make, or are all Corsas like this? COuld it also be a sign of it dying or is it no problem at all?
All I know is that my dads mondeo doesnt do it and the punto i learned in was fucked anyhow so I dont really have much to compare it to

So should I just take it to a garage, tell them the problem and they will do it or with the aid of a haynes book would it be possible to try it myself?
(I have just about zero experience under the bonnet)
Cheers

mines the same, but i've had a new clutch in feb 2003 and a new clutch cable in july 2003. Its been back to have it adjusted 3 times an it still comes back the same, but the gears engage better. The clutch can't be knackard cos it's only done 5500 miles

tighten the cable, mind bites quite low, i don't like them biting high, but don't want it biting right on the floor

don't suppose you could give me a rough guide on how the hell I go about doing that could you? 
Where abouts is the end of the cable which i need to tighten?
