automatic tilting side mirrors

Post by Firstcarscirocco »

Hi Guys,

I have a small problem with my rocco, before when I use to put the car into reverse, the side mirrors use to tilt down to see better (automatically), this was very useful when parking the car, for some reason the car isn't doing this task anymore, have I touched a button or changed something?

Can anyone help ?


Thanks

Door mirror control button on drivers door needs to be in the L position (on Right Hand Drive cars)

As above the mirror switch needs to be in the "L" position.

If you have Highline MFD, the option needs to be ticked in the settings menu.

By the way it's just the passenger side mirror that automatically dips.

When was the feature introduced? Or is it a factory option?
