I have been trying to figure out my cars clutch slippage problem, and also have an oil leak that I have been told is one of the seals and would be expensive to fix...so I just left the leak because I thought no big deal, but my clutch also slips, and if I'm backing up a hill or driving up a curb and riding the clutch and giving it a fair bit of gas(which is necessary since the clutch slips), I smell a strong 'burning brakes' like odor...
Now in another post, someone said that an oil leak can leak into the transmission where the clutch is, causing slippage and the bad smell..
So, assuming this may be the problem, can anyone suggest to me(remember I'm ignorant), what I can expect to hear from a mechanic regarding cost/time to repair this type of problem? Anyone else experienced oil leaking into their clutch/transmission?
Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it.
