It sounds like a thorough check of your brakes are in order, I am not sure who worked on your brakes but it should not clunk nor should there be a burning smell. Did you have the slides checked?

sounds like your caliber sticking that would cause the burning smell and clunking take caliber off and grease the hell out of it between the caliber and pad is the cylinder part grease that if that dont work buy a new one

Thanks guys for your help/suggestions. I do believe it is my caliber. A friend of mine looked at it a year or so ago but said they looked fine. They may have LOOKED fine but if it is sticking he wouldn't have been able to see that ya know? I'm gonna have it looked at/fixed as soon as I get the money. It shouldn't be very dangerous.....right?
 
Robert, I don't believe it is my brakes now. And not to sound like a complete girl but what are slides? Thanks again guys!
