when i had the loan car with the smell, i was having the squeaky clutch on my r53 replaced !!. I don't ride the clutch when driving, but do have to do this very steep hill start once or twice a week, and I obviously have to hold the clutch at biting point to do this, which results in the smell.

Could it be coincidence that i;ve had 3 cars in a row with clutch problems, or am I driving badly ?
