It is a 2009 and I am at about 208xx miles. There shouldn't be any reason why this s happening. I do drive the car hard but not ever where I go. A couple times a week I get on it. Never slipped and not often missed a gear. Haven't burn the clutch at all since I have owned it.

It is now getting to the point where at least once a day it will have trouble going into gear sometimes even grinding. Could this be the same issue?
I would start with replacing the clutch fluid with high temp DOT 4. Sounds like your fluid is contaminated and had air pockets from possible boiling. If there is still a problem then the finger points to the CSC.
