Default Fading Clutch - 2003 A4 3.0 q

Hi guys,
very strange problem with my clutch. The car is just 100k km(60k miles) and the clutch is fading BUT only when the car/clutch is warm, i.e. after about 5 min. drive.
It shakes the car quite unpleasantly between 1500-3000 rpm and i have the feeling that the clutch is slipping a bit. At high speed in 5-th and 6-th gear seems perfectly ok.
The car was driven by a woman for about 70k km when i bought it. She was a nice lady, don't think that she drove it very hard.
Is it the cluch or the hydraulic hose(line) or ....

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!

If it happens during low rpms, high gear at low speeds its the clutch slipping during a high load condition. During high speed there is less load on the clutch.
