You say 10 minutes in the problem starts - my first thought is it's heat related; have you the right oil, and when was it last changed? Heavy oil can cause the plates to stick together. Have you tried re-adjusting the clutch?

Is it a new cable?
I replaced mine with a cheap one and the same thing happened. Went straight to dealer and brought a genuine cable. Much better.
 
Hope this helps.
