Hello everyone and happy new year!!!!!!!!

just got my S3 back :jump: after havin a new clutch kit and a flywheel fitted, my clutch was slipping very bad before i had it replaced under warranty with a bit of f**king hassle from main dealer, it smelt proper bad before i gave it in but i got it back yesterday and drove this morning to work and it smelt like burning clutch again but not as bad as before just a light wiff,
Is this normal i not sure if it got to be bedded in for a couple of miles or
not?? :think:
 
Mine smelt for a little bit when new. Gone now.

JBS told me not to drive aggresively for the first few hundred miles whilst the bits bedded themself in.
 
cheers for that bud!!!!!!!!:thumbsup:
 
if your nailing it about with fast gear changes & getting the haldex to do its job your clutch will smell.
