washer fluid reservoir/burning rubber smell
Just reached the break in period and decided to check all of my fluids. The reservoir for the washer fluid was very low, so I added fluid and it all came gushing out. I take it to the dealer tomorrow. Anyone experience this? Also, what the heck is the burning smell coming from under the hood after hard launches? If its the clutch as I suspect I had better get my winter beater quick!

I've tried 2 "hard" launches. The 1st one I dumped the clutch, the 2nd eased it out. Both times it smelled like burning rubber under the hood. I'm either smoking the front tires or melting something!

I also smell burning rubber when hard launching my evo. I tired to locate the source, and i found that it is a bit concentrated in the left side of the engine (the clutch side). so i think its the clutch, but i dont know if it is normal... any opinions?
