CA Clutch Smelling/Smoking
Here we go....i drove my car home yesterday night and the clutch started smoking, i could smell the clutch. And everytime i push the clutch pedal in, i hear a loud whining sound from clutch. I still got to go under and check it out but im thinking im gonna need a new clutch. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Or any references as to where i can get a new clutch? thanks guys.

the whining sound is from a bad pilot bearing.

You can get a good clutch at a good price from Dregg100 on this forum. I bought mine from him and it's great.
