Car just developed symptoms of the clutch hose problem. Now I smell a hint of burnt clutch when I drive it very gently and the clutch feels relatively normal to depress. Have a bit of waiting before Audi has the parts to fix it.
Safe to drive it or am I screwing up the clutch?

I know exactly the smell you are referring to and in my case, it was because the clutch was only partially engaged for too long before I dropped it into gear.
