i been threw two 2ss camaros, one of them had so many problems that I had to get rid of it and kept the one that was good.
Both of them were m6 and had a slight cluch burn smell when going up hills from a stop. Its weird that these clutches start to burn in such light loads. I am still in the break in procedure and drive my cars like a grandma until i fully break in the car. When on a hill reversing our going up a hill even a slight tiny rev fanning the clutch at 1200-1500 rpm to bring up the revs before full engagement on a steep hill i would smell burning clutch. This type of driving is normal operation especially up a hill. It makes me think of the quality of the clutch disk used.
I have driven and raced many manual transmission vehicles with stock and performance clutches, I am fully aware of engaging the clutch without any throttle but this only applies on non incline surfaces. Also no other car would burn like this doing normal up hill procedures fan rev around 1200-1500 rpm. I am hoping its just a break in thing.
My other 2010 2ss maro that i bought from a shady dealership had so many problems, before i got rid of it i took it back to the shady dealership and they told me that I am not suppose to rev the clutch at all period. Which is BS all manual transmisson needs a slight rev up especially on a very steep mountain incline from a stop. I called them on it and had the tech try to go up a steep hill without any rev up and he screwed up and made the car die out and roll back wards. There were so many other problems with this camaro that i was a nightmare.
The good working camaro i own makes a smell occasionally but its slowly getting better.
