RR Sport EPB

Have a buddy with a RRS 2006 and he seldom uses the EBP he instead leaves vehicle in park , all in an effort to minimise wear and tear and servicing on the handbrake. Is he doing right ?

Nope, unless it's already fooked. If it's serviceable, use it or lose it

Discovery forums are worth a look, as RRS is based on the (superior

) Disco 3

Thanks for opinion . I was considering a RRS myself in future , but hate that EPB system and the repair bills that it can throw .
I've always done my own servicing on my Disco 1 . but I feel the EPB would require a main stealer to service and repair .

Aint done it myself but apparently diy-able

Bodsy is a member of disco3.co.uk it's a good source of info, like I said a lot of it will carry over to RRS

Yes , Read bodsys bible . What a lot of maintainance compared to a mechanical brake and how unreliable on an off road vehicle. Still time moves forward and I strive to keep up

live in the north of sweden, hardly ever use handbrake because of danger of it freezing solid, but it is a good idea to use once in a while to stop mechanism rusting up. He will be okay leaving it in park just use it when parking on an incline

As long as its adjusted right there should be no problem with it

Never been a fan of using the parking pawl to hold a 3ton vehicle.

The HB can seize from lack of use ya know..

And it isn't witchcraft to replace..
