EPB module screeching when engine off!!??
Hello,
The EPB (hand brake) module on my D3, 2006, 2.7 V6, works fine with the engine running ( there still a slight whirring sound) but when applied with the engine off, it screeches like a banshee. Shocking sound.
Why would this be happening?
What can be done?
Thanks.
Andy

Needs adjustment/servicing. Do it ASAP before the module is damaged.
Mine was the same, I guess the EPB is applied a bit more tightly when the key is switched off.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

Definitely don’t ignore it, I did and the replacement cost was £1,000!Andy

Same happened to me recently, it was the epb pads which had worn out, had them replace and all is well.General Grabber AT3's
