Hey, If a clutch is burning everytime you drive will it eventually break? What will happen to the transmission? My clutch is burning everytime I drive; I'm not dropping the clutch or anything like that I just drive like normal. I am worried about it because I don't have really good knowledge about clutches. Please help, Thanks.

what do you mean by burning? Do you tend to ride on the clutch?

You can smell the clutch when you get out of the car and I don't ride the clutch.

(not meaning to sound bad if I do) Are you sure it's the clutch you're smelling?

There no modification was done to my car like a 5sfte. From what I know it is the factory clutch that came with the car when it was new and it hasn't been replaced yet. There is about 115,000 miles on my car.
