Best of luck! I hope yours gets replaced under warranty cause it is an expensive fix!
The whole purpose of the CDV (which I've removed) is that you don't have to baby the clutch since it does it for you. If, indeed, you still have the CDV and you are babying the clutch at the point of engagement, it would lead to premature wear.
