Clutch engaging with clutch pedal depressed.

Those darn 3 pedal cars always have problems.

 

Sounds to me like the clutch master cylinder might be loosing pressure. Perhaps bleed it in the engine bay. Might be an air bubble in the system, could be a seal that is seating and then unseating with loss of pressure. Worst case its a seal in the clutch pack.

Unlike an F1. It's a simple system. 1) Air in the system. 2) Problem with clutch master cylinder or 3) problem with slave cylinder.

 

Yeah, I had the same problem last year with my manual 360. I have to do several back-and-fill routines to get out of my garage and headed down my driveway. That involves partially releasing the clutch to get moving backwards, and then depressing the pedal all the way to shift in to forward, etc. If I never fully released the clutch during these back and forth maneuvers, the pressure would slowly bleed off and pretty soon the clutch was starting to engage with the pedal fully depressed. This is NOT good when maneuvering in close quarters.

It tuned out that the master cylinder was bypassing. Changing the master cylinder and bleeding the system solved the problem. I think I made a "lessons learned" post several months back. The part is inexpensive and the job isn't very hard if you have ordinary owner-style shop tools and can remember "lefty loosey, righty tighty".

EDIT. I found my previous post about the "clutch pump" here: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/technical-q/419256-360-clutch-pump-change%85-lessons-learned.html

 

Sheeze Moz! I wish you were my neighbor. I could use a handy quick reference type guy nearby! Should I retire to your neck of the woods or are you thinking about coming this way to the beach, swaying palm trees and plentiful Asian women?

 

Before swapping parts etc I'd recommend a thorough bleeding session. It could be a little clutch dust has gotten to disturb a seal in the slave cylinder. By pumping and bleeding and pumping and bleeding you can often resolve these anomalies.

Good luck.

 

Do a quick check of the fluid junction box(black),externally on the right side of the gearbox. Known to leak and should be easy to inspect. If leaks are present buy the Hill Engineering upgraded version. Good luck!
