Clutchy Smell

[Chri4S]

I have a 2003 C4S, I sometimes get a clutch type smell when driving slowly in town traffic.

There is no evidence of the clutch slipping or of any other problems with the clutch.

Does anyone else experience this?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Probably not the answer you want to get but I have a '03 C4S, do about 45 minutes stop-go city driving every day and don't get any clutch-burn smell.

Hope it's nothing serious.

Hello

how old is the clutch ?

I am assuming you have not recently had 1 fitted ?(you probably would have mentioned this in your posting)

New ones can smell for a couple hundred miles as they warm up for the first couple of outings.

How many miles on vehicle ?

The car has done 23k miles but I have noticed this since I bought it at 17k in January.

It did get the RMS done by Porsche as goodwill in January immediately prior to my private purchase. Any chance this may be related?

Thanks for your thoughts, appreciated.
