Should be no problem. Just don't do it again.

good test

never thought of that, but doing that procedure would def tell you if your clutch is on its death bed.

Re: Uh oh... burning clutch smell... I got stuck in some deep snow....

Hey guys... I did the exact same thing (with my 2005 A4) when I went skiing a few weeks back, with the smell and everything.
Car also seemed fine after that, but after a few runs the clutch keeps sliding and I can't really accelerate reasonably. And if I try to accelerate too quickly the car starts rocking.

Does this mean I need to replace the entire cluctch or will changing the disc be enough?
Anybody got any idea how much it'll cost?
Should I go to a dealership or just any garage?

thanks...
