Electric mirrors in reverse.

Post by RoyS » Sun Jul 27, 2014 9:11 pm

Hey guys just a quick one, I used to put the car in reverse and the passenger wing mirror adjusted itself automatically displaying more of the tyre to see curbs better. Maybe 3 days ago nowit stopped doing that and I can't find a way to make it do this again any ideas? I thought this was a really good thing about the car and now its gone :s

There's a button near the windows it needs to be switched over - just next to the arrow button for controlling mirrors.

in your manual under "Automatic curb monitor" - Page 40 maybe.

Is this a standard feature or an extra? I noticed it on the test drive when I was reversing into a space, gave a great view of the back alloys!
