Towing concern

Ahhh should have noticed the UN-painted fenders there...

 

Yeah unfortunately I do from my Honda prelude days lol. Confident it wasn't burning my clutch but I could be wrong...

 

Burn clutch smell is just like burned brakes smell you get on an 18 wheeler when their brakes lock on up on the hwy.
So I'm thinking it was bearing smell from the rig he was towing.
OP should be ok

Hope that helps
Cheers!

 

My clutch in my 2016 smells like rotten garbage when it gets hot. I've only done it once or twice, and it's very distinct and bad.

 

It usually happens when the brakes are fighting the clutch, in my experience. If you're trying to pull something heavy, disable traction control. Brakes vs clutch = death stench.

 

Did it smell kinda like rotten eggs? It could have been the cat heating up if you were really working it.

 

Where did you get the sticker?

 

I got it from a guy on here actually. He has a post in the classified on here that is quite popular. He has a million different designs!

 

For future reference, when you're going to tow something very heavy like that, always use 4Lo. The lower gearing will give you a lot more torque with less strain on the drivetrain.
