What are the signs of a failing clutch?

2016 M6 coupe, 52k miles. I purchased the car with 40k miles on it. This is my first DCT, so I am not sure what a failing clutch pack feels like. It just does odd things sometimes that makes me think it may be going out. Low speed stuff, odd reverse actions, not any noticeable slipping under high power, that is all totally fine. When I purchased the car, the dashboard and steering wheel were replaced under warranty. I asked the dealership to drive it and let me know if they thought the clutch was ok, which they said it was fine. That was at about 45k miles. I have only put downpipes, an intake, and a bootmod3 tune on it.

A bad clutch will be the same with dct or manual. It will slip under high rpm/hard pull. If it doesn’t then it’s not the clutch.
