[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 146000, member: 718"] The clutches on these are all internal to the gearbox and run in oil, so there shouldn't be any burning smell unless something is deep fat fried. Take the dipstick out and check its colour and smell. If it is rank, you are in for a repair. I don't actually know of many that have actually failed in that way though. The D6 gearbox has a very odd and sometimes disconcerting characteristic in that if you dip the clutch pedal at a 'Give Way', for instance, but re-engage before actually coming to a full stop, the clutch will slip like heck. Not sure is there is a software update for that and not actually heard of any complaints about it, but it is something I have noticed during a fairly limited driving experience of these models. If you continue to slip the clutch pack under such conditions with a heavy load, then I wouldn't be surprised if mechanical problems would soon arise, but I have absolutely no knowledge of such issues, either first or second hand.
