SarahS Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) I have had my Audi A3 for 4 years from new (originally leased) without problem. Two months ago the electronic handbrake would not release at a roundabout on a major A road. Nightmare. Worked ok again after this but happened again a month later. Audi garage could not find a fault. Now happened again at home. I am frightened to drive. Audi not returning my call -they seem to think there is nothing wrong and most of the time this is correct as problem is very intermittent. There are no fault lights or messages. I have to use the car but I am frightened it will happen again. Anyone got a resolution on this? Edited November 7, 2023 by SarahS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could be an issue with the switch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnet Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Hello Sarah, If it were mine, I would be searching out a trusted localish independent, and seeking advice and inspection there. Ideally, you need to find somewhere where you can talk with the actual mechanics, rather than a receptionist. Kind regards, Gareth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
