Am I doing anything wrong or is there an easy fix? Sometimes when I put it into reverse they both tilt down sometimes only the drivers side mirror tilts down, some times they both tilt down. If they tilt down when I put it back into drive they always tilt back up. Now I have the mirror control switch set to the driverside and now the drivers side tilts down but not the passengers side even when I move the switch to the passengers side.

Try changing the mirror control switch to the right side and it should go down when you put it in reverse.

see dealer. that shouldn't happen.

That's what I thought, it was working and I did not touch any of the mirror controls and then it didn't work and then I switched it from the right side to the left side and the left mirror started working but the right one still does not tilt. Guess it's time to set up an appt. get a loaner for the day (with their gas, run some errands :-) ) and then pick-up the SC430 in the afternoon, hope they wash it before they give it back :-)

yeah i would say check with them. i believ emine is on the driver side and both mirrors tilt down the same time

although it seems like the passenger side is having some problem

I did't even know the car had this feature until I read this thread (Only had the car 3 weeks now). This is not even listed as a feature for the SC on the Lexus site (like it is for the LS). I always leave the switch in the middle position. Seems kind of wrong for this to work with it on the left or right position. Center would be more logical to me. Thanks for the tip

on that, i actually agree. on acura, if you put it in the middle, it tilts down. but if you put the mirror adjustment button on either left or right, nothing moves. i think that makes more sense.

but any case, this is a great feature for this car imho.

I have exact the same thing, at least it is the last one to fix. I started having the same problem soon after I bought the car and it got worse – from working sometime to passenger window not tilting at all My car is out of any warranties, but the dealer and
Independent mechanic both gave me the same estimate – replace widow electric motor $400 plus an hour of labor. At this point I decided I could leave with just driver side window tilting unless I can find something cheep on the junkyard, but I am yet to start my search.
Seems that your car is still under warranty, so get it to the dealer and let them replace that electric motor inside the windows.
