Clutch shudder bad when hot

My LCI had very very occasional & very slight clutch shudder almost from new but it has progressively gotten worse. When cold it's not really an issue but now once everything is up to operating temp moving off from stationary I have to keep revs above 1K at minimum or it shudders terribly. Driving in heavy traffic is a nightmare. Any ideas before I go to dealer for warranty claim?

Have done 36K km and still have original tyres (5mm tread left on rear PS4s-I had these installed to replace the Conti's on delivery), no burnouts and I've been driving manuals for 40yrs, only ever had to replace one clutch & that was at 180K km! (of course didn't have the other cars long enough)
