Re: i smell clutch
The thing is, it does not make sense that it only does it in reverse. It spins the same way regardless, therefore shouldn't make a difference if you are in 1-5 or reverse.
Consider this, I know this sounds odd, but are you sure what you are smelling is your clutch?
Edit: Also, are you making sure your foot is entirely off the pedal when you are reversing? You may be inadvertently slipping your clutch and not realizing it.
