Did you replace the clutch after warranty? Or was it covered? If after, what sort of bill were you looking at? I was told that the mechatronics (if it needs to be replaced) would be around $6k - $7k.
Somebody already replied regarding transmission reset cost so I won't address that.

My clutch replacement all in was about $4,500. I also had the oil pan gasket replaced at the same time (slight leak) as well as the motor mounts, for another couple hundred bucks on top of that.

At 40k miles though I don't think that should be your issue, unless you've been doing launch controls every now and again, or a bit more frequently.

I was at 90k miles when I started having these issues.
