My mother in law did that in my new 530 about 3 years ago. She did much worse to mine it sounds like. I knew right away mine was messed up. It smelled terrible and wouldn't go into gear. I had to get it towed to the dealership. It needed a new clutch and E-brake. It makes sense that with the resistance from the E-brake she had to use more clutch to get it to go. She didn't even drive it 11 miles though. It was more like 2 or 3. She really isn't a good driver though. I knew something was wrong when she didn't come back from her inaugural test drive within the neighborhood for like an hour.
I had to suck that one up to keep relations happy. I got some nice points for it though.
