Side-mirror not tilting in reverse
I turned on my reverse-tilt option for the side-mirrors for the first time since I turned it off when I bought the car a year ago. The driver-side does not tilt down when I shift to reverse. I can move the mirror in all directions w/the manual adjustment, and it will return to my preset memory position if I move the mirror and recall the preset. I searched but couldn't find anything.... Has anyone experienced this?

If I didn't agree with you that it is certainly kind of strange, I'd feel like an idiot for not knowing that about my car.

yeah in texas we dont have to parallel park much. I taught my kids to parallel park for their driving test. 2 moves for me and 3 for them. They all did well. Funny thing though, saw several people fail their test right off the batt since it was the first part in front of everyone. Neither were kids but adults. Pretty comical to watch although you have to wonder, one day they will be on the roads. OH, and just reverse faster and the mirrors wont auto dip

Tiling door mirror

David, read through this thread, he managed to get his mirrors working.

Because it's be nice to be able to have both dip on demand... I've set the passenger one to dip when in R, but it doesn't seem to really come back to its normal position when shifting to D...
