This has been a feature for a very long time, even in L322 with the electronic handbrake. Probably works in the D3 too (I'll check later). But as posted, it is quite un-nerving and serves to demonstrate that most of us rarely use the brakes to the full potential. But when we do...

To clarify, does the brake button need to be held for a few seconds , or just a quick flick? |

LR have had this on disco and rangey for almost 10 years. My D3 had it and it was a 2005 car. It was detailed and demo'd to me on my LRE day almost 10 years since ago. Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........ |
