Newbie 335i xdrive questions

Hey guys and gals,

I just bought this car in alpine white and while I await delivery I was wondering if anyone can please point me to some pics, preferably with tinted windows as I've not been able to see any anywhere!

Also, a quick technical question, do the side mirroors tilt when the car is in reverse? Bought the car and totally forgot to check/notice during my 2hr test drive! :s

Thanks in advance,

There is quite a long tint photo thread here I remember seeing a while back. If memory serves there are pics of pretty much every color with all kinds of tint. Do a search for tint in the photo section...

With regard to the mirrors, the passenger side mirror will tilt down in reverse, but only when you have the mirror adjustment selector switch set to the drivers side.

If you do not have memory seats, I do not believe you have the passenger side mirror tilting feature when you shift to reverse. (There is no tilt on the driver side)

The passenger side mirror should tilt down when in reverse for all 335

Thanks guys I think that explains why I did not notice it. It's almost counter intuitive to have it on the drivers side.

For sure I have drivers side memory; none for passenger so I should have this.

I will search for the tint thread too.

Thanks!

hey all, more questions (I'm sure I'll be adding to this)

Has anyone else noticed condensation in the fog lights? I drove in to work this morning and when I parked I noticed there was a bit in one corner of both lights.

Also, I orderd the rust module; should I be able to see that under the hood there somewhere? How do I know I have it!??!

Thanks
