Vehicles traveling through hilly regions will burn through clutches much quicker than vehicles that drive on flat land. this is because holding the clutch and rolling backward on a hill will cause more friction and wear down the clutch plates faster.. The smell is overheated clutch friction material. if you are trying to pull away up a big hill with a heavy load, or having to creep up a hill in heavy traffic, the constant use of the clutch as you move away, creep a few metres then repeat, will overheat the friction plates and that smell is the result. similarly, if you are being a dick and. How about goodbye $2,500 for a new clutch, flywheel and the labor to replace them. okay, seriously, though. in his defense, performing a brake torque burnout with a manual transmission can be.
Diagnosing a burnt clutch, without smelling it, can be difficult. oil leaking into the clutch casing will also cause clutch slippage, as will a bad flywheel, a misaligned clutch bearing, a blocked cylinder port, or problems with the cables and pistons connecting the pedal to the clutch.. Riding the clutch (resting your foot on the clutch pedal) will do more damage to the throw out bearing than the clutch plate. if the clutch springs are very weak i suppose it could cause you to burn (glaze) the clutch.. Slipping the clutch is what does the most damage. slipping is what you do when first start to engage the clutch and in an effert to keep from stalling the engine you give it more gas while still letting the cluch pedal out more until finally the car is moving fast enough to release the clutch completely..
