James B Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Hi Guys, Sometimes when I really give it the berries, smashing it through the gears I get a burning smell in the car. Its not all the time or even most of the time when I change gear but when I'm driving hard, doing quick changes at high revs. Basically when I'm driving like a bell end! Anyone else get this or have any suggestions as to what might be causing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 when I change gear but when I'm driving hard, doing quick changes at high revs. Going up through the gears or going down? If going up, then stop slipping the clutch. If going down, learn to heel and toe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.S Had no idea my use of the term 'bell end' would be met so well. Always been one of my best loved retro put downs, along with 'you tool'.
