Lowering your car doesn't shouldn't affect your clutch. I'd say bring it in.

True, but backing up a car up the hill and revving to 5,000RPM does.

This isn't a warrany issue. Just buy a new clutch and get it installed.

you don't need a new clutch. your car doesn't drive any different does it? you just smell clutch right? i've had my clutch burt b4(thanx chris ). the smell will go away in a few days. if it is driving funny or not going into gear you might need a new one but it shouldn't drive any differently unless you drove 5 mi uphill in reverse at 5k rpm. hope this helps.

^^^ i was going to say that as well. if you only smell clutch then it should be fine. ive done that before with my other car and the smell goes away after a couple of days. no need to worry about it. but if you want, i have a brand used 04 clutch for sale.
