Default Memory Function on Mirrors in reverse

Hi,
Just wondering if the mirrors have memory function on the position when going into reverse and the Auto-tilt is activated? Or do they just have one Set position (like a standard) when Auto-tilt is activated?

Had my car in for repair because of a woman drove into my left side mirror.

I mean that before I sent my car in for repair I could have a memory for the tilt when going into reverse, Now they just tilt almost all the way down in reverese.
Hope u guys can help =)

Thanx

Others can speak to this in greater detail, but sounds like you'll need to have your personal presets reset. Most all Lexus models have personal presets that are set at the dealership. Sometimes, when your car is in for service, some of those presets are erased. Call your service agent.

there is no way to program how far down they tilt. You can only program their standard position based on the 3 memory presets, along with the seats and steering wheel.

So is it possible that the preset I had have been deleted when they changed/fixed my mirror?

If that's the case, when you press the memory pre-set button, nothing will happen. Then you would just re-set your memory button.
