My Corsa B seems to have this problem too. It only occurs while the engine gets warms. In my own little world, i put it down to some form of moisture gathering on the plate while the car was stood over night. Dont know if i am right or not, but will be interested to see what the garage say abouts your car.

has it only started happening in the colder weather? Mine has. I thought it could be condensation on the clutch plates!!!
