EPB Mate,
Either needs adjusting or replacing or cleaning. Might even be the actuator.
Job for dealer or good local chappy.
If its stuck on use the manual release. If its not stuck on, dont use it and get it sorted asap.

Your no longer a D3 virgin now you've popped you EPB cherry.
A bit like the village bike, you feel left out until you get a shot round the square. Once it's all over you wonder what the fuss was about.

They were so fed up of seeing you that they took the fuses out, you just haven't noticed yet I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

£200 - Wow!
Had mine sorted by Yeovil yesterday for considerably less than that.
(Has anyone ever mentioned just how good they are at Yeovil? )

john4090,
yours should be in warranty? I had 3 EPB's done and one 3-hour tow back home (via Land Rover Assist) under warranty on my last model.
