Hi Alan
Great till they go wrong and cost 10x the amount of a cable system.
My Range Rover sport lost the end from one of the motor driven cables and t=
his then pulled the cable in locking up the motor. Impossible to then drive=
! A garage would just change the motor/ cable assembly costing ?500 for par=
ts and then have to strip and set up both sides. So 3 times the price with =
labour.
I googled the issue (same system on jags etc) and it is possible (after a c=
ouple of hours! Upside down under the car!) to free up the motor shaft. The=
n it took a couple more hours to strip brakes and setup. Try searching all =
the issues!
So no thanks, most owners would prefer the 'old system'!
Regards Andy

All -
My BJ8 (and also my Jag Mk IX) both have rear disc brakes.
I was wondering if anyone has ever thought to install electronic parking br=
akes on their cars? Anyone with experience/thoughts?
I just got a Tesla BJ-S and I have to say I really like the electronic e-br=
ake it has.
Best,
Alan
