Tonight the epb fault came to surface!
Screaming and screeching parking break fault on dash lights.
Removed the centre cup holders and plate underneath to expose the wire loop, it pulls out a bit and then the web instructions say to pull very hard to release the park brake.
I tried very hard and there appears to be no more movement on the wire, the brakes are still on.
What to do now please?

Apparently you have to pull even harder. Not tried, but some on here say if you don't feel like you are about to break something your not pulling hard enough.
Sure someone more qualified than me will be along soon! Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

Try putting a bar through it so you can give it a better tug Cheers Ian

Well that worked!
I couldn't release it so ended up calling the AA out to have a try, they failed so a low loader is ordered for tomorrow to get it moved to the garage.
