I don't follow his channel but know he is another sort of 'Jay Leno' type obviously with a few shekels to his name.

Exactly. But this would be an awesome grift for the audiophile type EV owners.

The main engine to chassis ground cable on my E90 M3 rotted out. Could have used the Monster cable upgrade.

Well, the bliss was short lived. Yesterday he got an error for the electronic parking brake, it will not disengage. Car will not move an inch. Next available service appt is 9/30. Yikes.

I remember a while ago someone took delivery of a new Tesla and the brakes were terrible and noisy, when eventually Tesla inspected it after a long wait for service it was discovered a brake pad in the set up was missing.

May be the EPB module has failed. Mobile unit could come out and check and possibly repair.

I assume it's the EPB, googled it and seems like there are tons of failures with those, sadly. Car has less than 300 miles.

That sucks. Here I was thinking my wife's car is too new to be having issues and we've driven it to 60k miles now lol.
