Yes, normal. I select Neutral first, apply the electric parking brake, then lift my foot off the brake pedal and wait for the car to come to a stop after the slight movement before selecting Park on the gear stick. This hopefully avoids strain on the gearbox that it would otherwise suffer if allowed to clunk in to P. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

Ah thanks guys I assumed the EPB applied automatically when engine stopped. |

It releases automatically. But no. Selecting EPB is way to go to avoid roll. 2015 RRS AB SDV6, Fuji White, Ivory

EPB will activate automatically, but not immediately after switching off. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

It does say something in the Owners Handbook page 86, about being applied Automatically unless Park is selected and there is also a bit about procedure to stop it applying automatically.
