Default adjust level of reverse tilt?

i searched through and couldn't find the answer to this one...

how does one adjust the level of tilt that the mirror has when going into reverse? i tried to adjust the mirror as i put the car in reverse, but it wasn't saved, even when i hit the 'set' button on the memory settings...

any idea?

and while i'm here... my inside rear view mirror doesn't seem to dim at all... at night, i have the 'auto' setting turned on and i try to block and unblock the sensors in both the front and back of the mirror and i get no darkening at all... think it's covered under warranty?

thanks.

I am pretty sure the level of reverse tilt is not adjustable.

thats kinda lame. I was always curious myself but never really took the time to try and see if it was actually saved. They made the effort to memorize what position the head rest was in, but not the reverse mirrors.

I'll try it on my 05' tonight and report back as to what I've found.

Could it maybe be a cbest setting? anyone know?

Nope, it is not a C-best setting. I studied that list many times
