Default Funky clutch

I just broke 20k on my car and I regularly notice that the clutch slips a bit when the car is cold. The problem is quite noticeable starting in 1st. After about 10-15 minutes of driving, the problem goes away. I took it to the dealer and they say the clutch is fine. They told me to bring the car back to leave it overnight, but I thought I'd see if anyone had seen anything similiar first. Does anyone have personal experience and/or an idea of what might be the cause??

Default Low tranny fluid?

When the car is low on tranny fluid and the fluid is cold, transmissions can do funky things... Since tranny fluid expands when it warms up, this can potentially go away when the car is at normal operating temperature.
