Stupid ****. I dont know how to stop it either. I don't ride the clutch, don't jerk it, dont stall it either.

I think it's because i let out the clutch slowly so the car doesn't jerk when shifting, especially 1st to 2nd.

It is possible that you have some plastic stuck to your exhaust under your car and you're smelling melted plastic. Did you look under the car?

i dont get it. Why did you even ask. Do you have any common sence?

obviously the dealer did a ****ty job and didnt wipe the oil off of your motor after they were done. Did it smoke at all?
