Yes the EPB screech occurred whilst we were in Spain. Park brake got stuck on and i had to emergency release on the cable under the centre console.

Chris's decided to throw a wobbly on him halfway along a track in Spain. Much cussing and grring about the EPB ensued. Didn't ruin the weekend though

No reason to replace the module, they just reset it, clean/adjust the shoes and in-wheel mechanism. Mine has been reset a couple of times now. I asked my garage to clean/adjust the in-wheel end of mine after Les Comes. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders 2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed |

When doing a lot of off road driving the handbook says the EPB should be inspected and cleaned, yet dealer said to wait for next service. Would this cause a future problem that many have either had or moaned about?

Service schedule says just adjust but I ask for disc removal, clean, lubricate and adjust : Visitor from fullfatrr.com

Wait till next service sounds like a typical line to get you off their back!

Ancillary drive belt is checked to ensure no muddy water has deposited a layer of crud on it or the pulleys. After a while, said crud could cause an issue if left in the grooves. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
