Clutch Issues and a noise after starting

I just had my clutch replaced in my '03 Mini S after only 4k miles... not covered by warranty and not the fault of my driving ability. After three weeks of fighting with MINI Usa and the service center I paid the $2200 to get my car back. I have had it for a few days and I can still smell burnt clutch. Normal??? I have also noticed that immediately after starting my car a 1-2 second noise comes from the engine like something is grinding. ANy ideas??
