Ok; lets say you have a dead battery and cant get to the battery for whatever reason. How would you be able to release the electro mech parking brake? Ive been curious about this and even rang my local audi and they said its top secret classified information and can't give it to me but it 'can' be done.
Does any one have the inside info on this?
thanks

In these cases the E-M-P-B would become more of a hinderance that a benefit. I can see the reasoning behind it; parked on a hill, battery goes weak and eventually dies, parking brake doesnt get automatically released hence to no catastrophe. But still... must be a way around it!!

No of course not. Im hyperthetically saying what 'if'? Say 5 years down the line when batteries tend to come to the end of thier lives what would happen then?

One dealer told me to go to ERWIN manuals online and buy the workshop manuals or something. Doesn't really help the matter if you were stuck out in the sticks somewhere.
Im going to find out somehow!!
