@nokiauk - I've recently got a 13 plate used leon se with tech pack, but no convenience pack. Am taking it soon to my local garage who have VCDS and have agreed to try to enable rear DRLs and kerbside dipping as per the FAQ post on this forum. I notice you've also got an SE - did you activate kerbside dipping via vcds too or was it part of your package? Not sure I can be bothered to replace a mirror just to get this function TBH...

I do hope that our Leon has the kerbside dipping mirror (when SEAT eventually get round to building our car). We currently have this feature on our Mk5 Golf and it has proven to be very useful.


I have just checked my order dated 22/10/2014 Leon SC and the extras I ordered are folding door Mirrors with kerbside reverse view function printed on the order so this must have been the Option then
.
But on Checking the website today there is no mention of Reveres tilt function so has it been dropped ??
I have started a new thread to get response

I enabled using VCDS, the fault with early cars means that sometimes the mirror does not return to its starting position, a new mirror unit will resolve this.

Thanks for getting back on this. My cArs registration date was July 13, so might end up having a rubbish mirror. I'll try and enable it in vcds and see what happens - I can always disable it again if it doesn't work properly. Don't think it's worth replacing the mirror - how much is a newer mirror anyway?

My 64 plate FR has a working tilting side mirror, maybe they've got a software fix now
