Same shit, different car.
The EPB appears innocent. This one seems to be just stuck pads from sheer accumulation of dirt (the roads out here range from terrible to nonexistant, although we do try to stay off the gravel roads if possible). German cars are not made for this.
I had pressure washed this sometime before the first frost, which was less than 2 months ago or so? So all that crud is since then, plus now with road salt added 😬
Took it all apart, cleaned and just on putting the second side back together. Hopefully that'll sort it. Would be nice to have at least one working car 😩

Rear brake pushy & turny thingie kit (caliper/piston reset kit). All you need. Both left & right-hand thread.
Important to get one with magnets that keep the adapter plate from falling off.
