Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

As to your question - when you say the mirror is correctly set up so you can see the nearside of the car from the driving position, that isn't how I was taught to adjust the mirrors.

Suggestion
After a while this setting becomes instinctive and you just make it automatically when you get in a car (if it wasn't set that way already.) Another help is a convex mirror (bubble mirror sort of thing) - these are available in lots of sizes, and shapes - you want one that roughly follows the contour of the upper part of the mirror.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Has anyone noticed a blind spot on the nearside door mirror on these?. Door mirror set up correctly so you can see the nearside of the car from driving position. The rear view mirror on the cabriolet is a bit small as is the rear window. The blind spot is between loss of vision from the rear window of an undertaking vehicle ( roof up) until the nose of it is alongside the tip of the passenger door... My old 996 cabriolet does not have such a blind spot?

Hi Graham, It's great you found the New Members Introductions forum, but a question such as this might do better in the correct model technical forum. I'll be moving it. Hopefully you'll be back and post a new member intro message.. As to your question - when you say the mirror is correctly set up so you can see the nearside of the car from the driving position, that isn't how I was taught to adjust the mirrors. The quick and dirty technique I was taught, was to rest your head against the window on the driver's side, look in the mirror, and adjust it so THEN you can just see the nearside of the car. If it's setup correctly - someone walking around your car clockwise (in the UK, counterclockwise in the US) a few feet away, would disappear from the rearview mirror JUST as they appear in the side view mirror. After a while this setting becomes instinctive and you just make it automatically when you get in a car (if it wasn't set that way already.) Another help is a convex mirror (bubble mirror sort of thing) - these are available in lots of sizes, and shapes - you want one that roughly follows the contour of the upper part of the mirror. Mount it on the mirror at the top of the mirror. You can then adjust it up/down until it's looking fairly level to the rear of your car. The purpose of the bubble mirror is - a "no-go" mirror. If there's anything in that mirror, you don't move in that direction until you've ID'd it and determined it's not a threat.
