[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1805137, member: 396914"] Could it be that your battery is swelling? It's just under the trackpad and can push upon it from underneath, so maybe as soon as you touch it, it sees that as a "click" instead of a touch. Try this: Get a ruler or straightedge and stand it on its side directly above the trackpad. It should touch the MBP all the way across. If the battery is causing the case to bow because of swelling, the ruler won't touch at the ends and the curve will be obvious. [/QUOTE]
