I've noticed that both mirrors adjust slightly when I select reverse.
I don't see them ever move back.
If I get in the car and select reverse I see them move up slightly and out but when I then select Drive they remain the same.
No idea why or when they adjust back to normal.
Its not a lot just a slight adjustment.
Anyone else seen this? or know why?

Have you looked in the manual at the section Rear View Mirrors Which Tilt In Reverse Gear
Maybe able to adjust / reset the stored position.

Works as should for me.

I get this too. I’ve adjusted them both to where I want them for forward and separately adjusted them down to see the kerb when reverse is selected.

Now when I select either mirror and then engage reverse, that mirror tilts to where I set it and it returns when I select park or drive. Very handy feature and it’s supposed to do it.

That's neat. I'll have to play with it.

I have make it like this,

First make the settings of the wing mirrors.

than standstill put the gear to reverse and choose the wing mirror which you want to adjust and click the button, when the led in ON make the settings which angle you want to adjust.

Make same adjustment for the other one also.

then click the wing mirror side selector button to save it.



Now when you put the Reverse Gear which side you are approching just click the button of that side mirror button and it will change the angle which you have setted.

OK tried this and its not working correctly.
I set both mirrors as needed. That's fine.
I then select reverse.
I click the drivers mirror selection button (orange LED comes on) I adjust as I want it.
But when I press that selection button again the mirrors readjust back to the original position.
If I press the select button again they automatically move to the position I set for reverse.

So basically the mirrors stay in the "normal" position unless I am in reverse and I select either the drive or passenger mirror adjust button and then which ever one I select will adjust to my chosed reverse position.

Having read the manual it looks like the mirror position is linked to the seat position memory. As the UK model has a manual seat position I suspect this isn't implemented in the UK. So I don't think the UK version can do this correctly and what I'm seeing is a partial implementation.
