    Brakes are kind of important, so I'd get them looked at professionally as soon as possible!

    yes it's your pads, they are canny cheap to have replaced. I paid about £30 for a new set from ATS.

    Get it done asap, if you don't you will end up paying for new brake discs also...they can be £££

    20 minute job for a corsa, just phone and book in advance to make sure they have the parts so you don;t have to wait long.
