It is only a few dollars a bottle. What is happening is that your brake/clutch fluid is boiling and not creating enough pressure to push your clutch peddle back up during an extended period of heavy use. New fluid with a higher boiling temp fixed this for me and the clutch actually feels better then it did when brand new. As for the smell, it is your clutch getting hot from heavy use. Just do not ride the clutch and you will not get the smell unless in heavy traffic. Then try to stop and go a little less meaning you do not have to move up if the car in front of you only moved 5 feet. I hope this helps!!

I know this was posted in another thread. I tried this, and my clutch still did the same thing. Under a fast, heavy launch, the clutch sticks 1/2 way up and nothing but burnt smell and not much of a take off. I don't let it off slow, but don't pop it up either. Happened 1 more time after I changed with DOT4!
If it keeps up, I will take her in to the dealer... ;(
