Hi Phil, I never use the EPB as I just leave in park. This is a bit of a note to those who are far more knowledgeable than me....should we still use the EPB even though left in park? I hear stories about it jamming so thought best left alone |

I actually use my EPB all the time. I had the same on my A5 and it didnt cause me any issues in over 5 years. Assuming the same with the RRS, but could be wrong?

I used mine most of the time, especially if any kind of a slope was involved, to take pressure off the gearbox and to keep the parking brake functioning. It releases automatically so was very easy to use. Now sold 2010 TDV8 Santorini black, lots of extras and best car I ever owned, and there's been a few. I will be back.

The EPB needs to be used to keep it working. Use it or lose it. |

Same with manual hand brakes. Needs to be used to keep working. |
