Mondeo Mk4 Clutch Slip

Has anyone come across clutch issues on MK4 Mondeos? I noticed mine appearing to slip very slightly under acceleration in 5th yesterday but only a bit and it didn't really feel like previous cars I've had where clutches have gone as it only slipped slightly then locked again.

I'm wondering if it is likely to be a DMF issue, but can't quite see how that would make the clutch slip unless is is becoming contaminated.

It's done about 50k which seems low to me, but then I don't know how it was driven for the first 19k of it's life.

Take the starter off, if its full of grey powder DMF is on the way

That's exactly what it does.

There's no other symptoms when driving though. Aren't you supposed to get vibration with a duff DMF?
