When I first got mine there was an odd relay with a fuse jack at E6 (telephone/terminal 30). Removing the jack or fuse caused the car to behave as described.

However, I recently re-tuned to ROW version and this is no longer the case. If you're in Europe and have an ROW tune then this won't be your issue.

The part about the clutch depression is also true. On US tunes, the clutch must be fully depressed and if it is not or the actuator switch is bad then the car will behave as described. Again though, with an ROW, this feature is not active and clutch depression does not affect starting.

Sorry I've got nothing good to add.
