Things that shouldnt be on cars
Discussion
I was working on a 07 passat on friday car already on ramp and was told the back pads need replacing last job of the day so took the calliper of removed the pads and noticed the electric motor on the back of the calliper hence electric handbrake. Went to one of the guys in work to say about how to wind back the piston, he turns around and says via the computer. Know this is the first time ive heared of this so went on to autodiagnose website to how to relaease, the car has to be on the ground oh fk put the calliper back on, wheels on back on the ground went through the sequence and finnished the job. So this means the end of working on your own cars even to do your braks. I hate electric handbrake never understund why you would want them. so what other things on cars you really dont need and would cars be even more fuel efficent if it didnt have a mass of electronic crap on it like heated fking seats.

Can be exceptionally cool in the right car.I'm completely against electric handbrakes, and traction control that cannot be completely turned off. Great to leave on day to day but if we want to risk "crashing due to decreased traction and stability" then for fks sake just bloody let us!

Reverse parking sensors and cameras
Why are they needed. We could park cars before no?
Oh and any form of TV for obvious reasons
Newer cars have much poorer visibility than older ones.Why are they needed. We could park cars before no?

An E30 BMW is like a greenhouse compared to an E90 and much easier to manouever.
Hate electronic parking brakes though!!

Out of curiousity, you say reverse parking sensors - do you not object to front parking sensors? As shirley its easier to see where the front of your car is compared to the rear?Why are they needed. We could park cars before no?
For the record I like my rear parking sensors
