mmmmm I asked my dealer the same question WRT my E70. He checked with the Service Dept. and they said there is no 'auto' way of doing this. The reason they gave was it wears the motors out on the mirrors....hard to believe but that's what I was told

At least with E70, you could re-program by someone (not the dealer); however, the programming would be lost if the dealer made an update. If I know I'm going to be in a parking lot, I fold the mirrors - having wife remember is a lost cause.

Press and hold the door 'lock' button on the keyfob; in the UK this folds the mirrors and closes any open windows / glass roof. Similarly if you press and hold the 'un-lock' button on the keyfob it opens windows / glass roof. I think I'm correct in saying that you need to have option 430 "Folding/Auto Dimming Ext Mirrors" for folding / unfolding of the door mirrors part of this feature to work.

auto fold in not mentioned in o/manual.
I do not fold my mirrors in parking lots, maybe I should to protect them. I believe there are 4 ways to fold in: 1) button inside car 2) key FOB (with option) 3) 322 Comfort Access (touch and hold door handle ridges 4) manually. I do think that the motors will wear faster (can't quantify) with more movement, unless manually closed. Also, I should default the passenger mirror to not tilt down whilst in reverse unless parallel parking. I priced F25 aspherical side mirrors assembly, wow $560. Not standard in NA. |

That's an easy one: not possible in the US as an standard option. However, you could easily have it coded for $50 and the mirrors can fold every time you lock the car.
I will have my coded once it arrives but I am always wondering if the motors break (for regular wear or whatever other reason), would the dealer refuse to fix the motor because I have coded it to fold every time I lock the car? That's a risk... Last edited by Socal2025; 03-24-2014 at 03:41 PM.. |

If r33 is busy, let me know and I can remote code for you via Team Viewer. It's very easy if you have all the software, etc.
