Default '03 CL Type-S powertrain problems?

just wondering if anyone else has been having problems with their 6-spd cl type-s? i've got one and my clutch keeps slipping on me (i think) --> feels like i'm losing power every once and while for a second or two. it is very evident in the morning on a cold start, where the clutch seems to slip at about 1 mile into my drive... also i have experienced the car "bouncing/shaking" (occasionally) in sixth at around 2,000 rpms... from "i can only assume" the clutch slipping<--if i engage/disengage the clutch, the car drives fine afterwards. my acura dealership states that they are aware of the problem, however, cannot fix it until they get more info from honda directly. their telling me that honda is unsure where the problem is originating within the powertrain due to its "sporadic nature" with consumers. i think it's a load of crap, and that my dealership just doesn't want to touch the darn thing.

just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if they have been able to fix it properly. any help would be greatly appreciated as this is extremely annoying on an otherwise fantastic car.

best regards,
roman
