Auto-tilting side mirrors in reverse

mine driver side will also tilt in and down. i cant remember if the other side but it definitely will tilt down.
another thing i am puzzled. seems like selecting the the left or the right mirror dont make any difference to the way it tilt? is this true or i am not observant?
there seems to be lots of other features that i am still not aware of. the button next to the rear sunshade up/down switch is actually the on/off switch for the front/back sensor!!! i just realized that today coz i have some how off it a week ago and scratching my head why my front and back sensors are not working!!! it helps as there is lots of narrow spiral multistory car park here.

I had the same problem with my side mirrors not tilting of all a sudden. Found this site and read through all comments. It has been very helpful ☺️ It is now working perfectly when mirror adjustment is either on the left or right but not in neutral. Saved me going to a dealer - and learned a few new things too. So thank you everyone.

After making the tilt adjustment I want for the reverse position, I move the shifter back to park, press set 1, but the reverse side mirrors setting does not hold where I positioned them. They do tilt down when moving the shifter to reverse, but not to the position I set. What's wrong?

The Owners Manual clearly tells you how to set the side mirrors to automatically tilt-down in reverse, but HERE are the instructions given previously.
Be sure to SAVE the setting into one of the seat position memories.
See Page 130 & Page 143 (in the below linked Owners Manual) for how to link the mirror function when reversing and how to enter (save) a position to a seat memory number.

I literally just did this yesterday after reading a post about it. I'm not sure who posted on this forum but here it is...
-put car in park
-adjust both side mirror to personal preference
-while pressing on the break pedal, put car in reverse making sure not to release pedal until you are done adjusting your side mirrors
-while mirrors are tilted down, proceed to adjust the mirror to your preference (do same thing to other mirror)
-put car in park
-save these settings into seat memory button

-while mirrors are tilted down, proceed to adjust the mirror to your preference (do same thing to other mirror)
-put car in park

It's almost as difficult as learning how to adjust the headrest.

I think you keep it in reverse as you set the seat settings for it to memorize the reverse mirror position.

Hope this helps.
