It does smell a bit of exhaust fumes though. The car currently runs and drives OK so is this the sign of a blown head gasket. Water temp is...

    Is this the signs of a dead clutch?

    When I hold the car at the bite on steep hills etc, it makes a jarring noise (which i know is clutch related - because it only does it when biting at a certain point) and smoke starts coming from behind/below the engine. It stinks of burning clutch too which is a big giveaway. My car is...
