Hey, after a good hard pull I'm getting this burnt rubber smell. It could be my tires or leaking oil on the exhaust, but I'm not sure. So does it smell like tires burning?

When my clutch was slipping it smelt like overworked brakes. Kinda like you smell from a semi going down a steep grade. It was also pretty easy to see because the rpm's went up but the car didn't go any faster.

nate's right it smells like over worked brakes but worse. and if you ever do smell burning clutch, you'll never forget it.
