Clutch Slippage?/Check Engine Light - Related?

[Greybush]

So I bought a 2009 987 about 4 months ago. In that time I've put 4K miles on it, so now it has 32K miles.

I've noticed lately that it seems a little sluggish during harder acceleration, but I'm not sure if this is clutch slippage, as I've never had car that had clutch problems. Today I wondered if I was imagining it, so I decided to do a quick acceleration from a stop through 3rd gear. Shifting into 2nd, it seemed sluggish again, and my CEL came on during the acceleration.

How screwed am I? Does this sound like anything specific to any of you?

Thanks in advance.
