Vee37 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 So I have the car in the title, and I love that the side wing, rear view mirrors dip / point down when the car is in reverse. And as expected, they *attempt* to revert back to the original position, but fail. They appear to overshoot, and I have to manually adjust them back into position. Normally they return with a angle pointing slightly into the sky 😠 I know I can turn off the tilt on reverse, but I find it very useful when reversing out of my VERY tight garage. Is this normal or common? I tried the window reset type procedure. ie move to highest then to lowest. And it did not change. Any other suggestions? Is there another trick?

V35_Paul Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I never had this problem in mine. What about using the seat position buttons? Don't they remember steering wheel and mirror positions? It's not a fix but im thinking you could just press the memory button to return it to your preset position Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484552-2008-370-gt-coupe-v36-side-wing-rear-view-mirrors-dont-re-align-after-reverse/#findComment-7977498 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a fix but im thinking you could just press the memory button to return it to your preset position Mine is a 2008 370GT SP Coupe,. and I have never experienced any seat position memory/return. It does not have the 1-2 buttons on the door, for different driver's. Are they the "seat position" buttons you are talking about? I drove yesterday, and I noted that the passenger side actually returned pretty much spot on and did not need adjustment after reversing. But, the drivers side did after every reverse. Its not a total killer, as I leave the "side control" turned to the drivers side, and its becoming almost a muscle memory to tilt it down again after reversing. But obviously still not the best way to be.

V35_Paul Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 yeah. Maybe my memory of my car is wrong. I did have 2011 V36 SP, maybe in the newer model it had them.

It was also an option on the earlier models, and another being heated seats. I saw some when targeting my year. Neither of which mine has.
