turn down the passenger mirror in R
Unit 52 (select the passenger unit, it may vary from left drive hand/right drive hand)
coding
Byte 4
enable bit 2
enable bit 3

 

:? Can you clarify a bit or provide a step by step on how exactly to do this? I'm assuming I need a cable or program to somehow enter these values. Thanks

 

I think I've figured it out. I need to buy a OBD to USB cable, download the VCDS software and enter the values that way, right?

 

Sorry for being a bit vague, yes your spot on, cable and VCDS is all that's needed, there's a very large thread on the forum regarding this called "bit & byte" I'll post a link

 

Here you go, a bit long but well worth a read,

Far easier to use something like this:

Or this:

Are you sure you don't have it already? If you don't have it set right and haven't set the dip position then it won't dip.

From memory: You need to always have the wing mirror switch pointing at L (assuming RHD). To set up the dip position (once only) you need to put the car in reverse and manually set the mirror to the required dip position. Then take the car out of reverse and the mirror should return to the original non-dipped position. Put the car in reverse and it should dip.

Can't recall if there's a tick box in one of the MMI menus to select dip on reverse but worth a check before messing with VCDS or equivalents.

Thanks, I wasn't aware of this.

 

As above, just be aware that the mirror doesn't reset immediately leaving reverse gear, it will move back at a set forward speed.

Thanks! I've ordered a cable and hopefully should be straightforward to do!

Aha I tried this but it didn't work, hence thought I'd ask! Appreciate the reply nonetheless

 

anybody knows, if the turn down the passenger mirror in R function is activated, what happens when the mirrors are folded and I put reverse? will they automatically unfold and passenger side will turn down, or remain both folded?

 

They stay in. The tilt in reverse only works when the mirror control is set to the passenger side mirror (depends on RHD / LHD).

Imagine if they were folded to get the car in the garage and they unfolded as you were driving in!

 

you perfectly cantered my problem!
many thanks
