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.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My car is fitted with electric seats with a memory function. I read in the manual that if I programmed the seat memory while the car is in reverse then the passenger door mirror should tilt down to show the rear wheels whenever I select reverse. I did this, but unfortunately it's the driver's mirror that tilts and not the passenger mirror. I guess there is some setting somewhere to correct the problem. Does anyone know how to swap it over?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It's RHD - Standard UK spec I assume.

POST 4Original post

I've never had the feature, and haven't got a manual to hand, but I think both mirrors can be dipped in reverse. Do you have to have the mirror adjuster switch in the left hand position when you engage reverse?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I tried that but it didn't seem to make any difference - perhaps I'll have another go.

POST 6Original post

Just found this: If you wish for the passenger's mirror to swivel down as a parking aid when reversing, reverse gear must be engaged when the seat position is stored. Maybe you didn't do this when storing the seat position.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Unfortunately that's exactly what I did but the wrong mirror tilts. It's like the car is in LHD mode.

POST 8Original post

I've just looked at the coding instructions for the seat memory, and found this: Modify coding The following settings can be selected from the menu and encoded under the menu item Modify coding. Coding Setting "" Parking aid - active/ not active "" Upper lumbar - present/ not present "" Lower lumbar - present/ not present "" Parking aid on door mirror - right/ left "" Lowering - 10 to 120 degrees It looks like it might have been coded incorrectly, or has lost its coding and gone to default settings. Should be easy enough to re-code. If you are anywhere near me I would be happy to do it for you.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's great thank you. I'm in North Hampshire so not a million miles away. I'll contact you next time I'm coming your way.
