Not much to go on but it may be your clutch. You will still be able to engage all the gears. Clutch is like a brake pad with a pressure plate. If the clutch is worn the plate can't apply enough pressure. my guess you smell something burning right

Hey my car did that and yes it was smelling like burning and the psi on oil was not working properly please help me
