sometimes after some hard driving I can smell a burnt rubber kind of smell coming from the car.. I assume it's my clutch. I gotta learn to keep off the throttle before I downshift.. I know I should do heel toe downshifting... I'm a newbie and I'm learning..
anyways.. how can you tell when it's time to get a new clutch?
and typically how much is it to get a heavy duty one with installation included?
I think a good way to tell is to get in a high gear (5th) and go about 30. Floor it. If you're rpms go up and your mph stays the same or goes down, it's time for a clutch.
It would be really hard to tell by the points of engagment, just because every car is different. You can't really compare present to stock because the clutch is broken in.
