Wing mirror & reverse

[Donnyboy]

From what I've read about the Mk1's it was only the ones with electric memory seats that had this function.

Does your car have electric seats? Are you thinking about folding mirrors or the tilt when reverse is selected?

electric leather seats, memory, heated folding mirrors and left hand mirror tilts when reverse is selected. quite well loaded... i think not long after mine they pulled some of the toys.

suprised that the new ones dont? i would have thought you`d get reversing sensors and /or mirror..

It seems to be tied with the electric seats for some reason. Thats prob why the mk2's don't have it.

Do you get electric seats on any mk2's?

not sure but deffo not the FR

it works only with seat memory, because mirror needs to store default position before folding down to know how come back to normal. And it also requires some potential measuring block in mirror. So I´m affraid, you cant get this without seat memory.

ok, thats that then! bugger!

I have had my stylance for a year and I have never found this facility. I know that it is on the Golf. Would be interested to find out if it works on the leon and how! Like I only discovered a few weeks ago that turning off the esp raises the rev range on the dsg and pressing the key fob once locks the doors and holding it down folds the mirrors in

I didnt know of this holding down the lock button on the fob folds in the mirrors, dosnt do it on mine?, is there a special way to do it??

I think this only works when you have the convience pack with folding mirrors.

Hold the button down firmly until mirrors fold. Try it a few times if it does`nt work at first. Like I used 2 press fob twice as I thought 2nd press sets the dead locks. No just once and sets the alarm

folding mirrors on locking the car only works on MY07 and later

I've got folding mirrors on mine - 56 plate. I was part of the convenience pack with auto lights and auto-dipping rear view mirror.

I dont have the convienience pack on my FR, but I do have the folding wing mirrors
