Probably software yes:

My 2015 110 had EBA, basically if you brake hard and suddenly then it takes over braking and stops the vehicle as quickly as it can using all of its sensors to find maximum traction. Almost like launch control in reverse

I found it particularly annoying. Super sensitive, even gentle corners on a rough surface would trigger it. When I had my 2015 model I wanted it removed lol 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

You'll find that something called "good driving" has much the same effect, and is a lot cheaper! ![]() |
