Rear mirror autotilt

Espi2 · 07-06-2015, 01:07 PM

Has anyone had any issues with their autotilt feature? Mine was working fine when I put the car in reverse but now it won't autotilt and I can't locate the setting in the idrive settings. Any tips?

Check the mirror adjustment selector. Is it set to control right hand mirror?

Have you caught the drivers door switch for the mirrors over to the drivers mirror?
It only auto dips if switched onto the passenger mirror from the door, then obviously reverse is engaged

Thanks for the tip, will check when I head home from work.

You have this backwards. The switch needs to be on the left (driver's mirror) for the passenger mirror to dip.

You are correct, my appologies. (Senior moment forgetting which side was correct!....but switched to right side for me in a RHD)
