EPB
..mine's kaput.
Stuck on last Friday, (middle of Berlin, major junction ) managed to get it off by turning everything off and back on. Mrs BW just called, stuck on while out shopping, luckily easy walking distance to LR dealer in Berlin, techies walked back to car with Mrs BW had a look and reported it as knackered.
In to get sorted, hire car on it's way.

Welcome to the ever increasing EPB failure club
Just had my replaced again for the second time. Nothing worse than that screaming squeal from the car and everyone turning around to stare at you.
This must be costing LR a small fortune in warranty repair costs

Should charge all the EPB warranty bills to the idiot that decided it was to go in the D3!!! Was told on the LR factory tour that it was a piece of technology from Jaguar, do Jag drivers have the same problems as EPB issues are not restricted to those of us that venture off the tarmac!

I believe there have been only a few problems with the Jags as mud seems to be the issue. Gets beween the shoe and the drum caused the EPB to go out of alignment. AFAIK.“There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€
