DIC Failure Symptoms ... ?

I know that many here have had DIC failures that fail completely without any advance notice, but has anyone had DIC failures with symptoms?
My car started to have dips in RPM's while idling at a stop light. It would dip down and then jump back to normal. This has happened for a few weeks. Took it to my indy, but he said there were no codes thrown off and the airflow was fine. He gave up after an hour. This dip seems to have gone, but I've had a starting issue. The car won't start when the engine is warm. Once it cools, it starts no problem. Do the prior two issues sound like a DIC failure coming on?
The reason I ask is I need to decide to take this to the dealer or my indy. If this is DIC related, I want to take this to the dealer as I would expect this to be covered under the DIC recall. This will be my second replacement. My first was at 55K miles, and I'm now at 72K miles.
I have a 2001 viggen.
Thanks for any input.
