Best Answer

The gear linkage on top of the gear box on this shape of Corsa suffers from wear very commonly. It seems that the ball & socket joints get water in them, causing the metal ball to rust, and then wear away the plastic socket.

The mechanism has been re-designed with the aim of preventing water getting in the joints.

There are two repair kits available from GM, a small kit for use when 1st and 2nd are hard to select, and a larger kit that is needed if reverse is hard/impossible to select.
