Used handbrake levers vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
No — the ID.5 does not have a traditional handbrake lever at all. Like other modern Volkswagen electric vehicles, it uses an electronic parking brake (EPB), operated by a small button or switch on the centre console rather than a physical lever. If you're searching for a handbrake lever, this part simply was never fitted to any variant of the ID.5.
The part you're most likely looking for is the electronic parking brake switch or EPB switch, which is the button on the centre console that engages and releases the parking brake. You may also be interested in the EPB actuator or EPB control module if the fault is mechanical or electronic rather than with the switch itself. A good breaker will be able to supply the correct switch or actuator once you confirm your exact variant and registration.
No variant of the ID.5, including the performance GTX model, was ever fitted with a mechanical handbrake lever. The electronic parking brake is standard across the entire ID.5 range regardless of trim or drivetrain. If a previous owner has fitted an aftermarket lever, that would be a non-standard modification not supplied by Volkswagen.
It is very unlikely to be correct; no production VW ID.5 left the factory with a mechanical handbrake lever, so any such listing is almost certainly mislabelled or intended for a different vehicle entirely. Double-check the listing carefully and contact the breaker to confirm the part number and the vehicle it actually came from before purchasing. Buying the wrong part wastes time and money, so it is worth querying directly.
