Here's a stupid question
Does the driver side mirror rotate down when you put the Z4 in reverse? I know the passenger side does, because I use that a lot. But I never bothered looking at the driver side until today and noticed it doesn't move. Is it broke?

Thanks a lot! I wonder why? I use the mirror to keep off the grass when backing out of my driveway, which isn't straight. I never bothered to look on the driver side, because I never go down that side of the driveway. Until today.

Bear in mind it only tilts when the mirror adjustment switch is in the driver's position. If set to the passenger mirror position, the mirror doesn't tilt. |

They should both go down IMO. I usually end up tilting the driver side myself, cause i back into all my prking spots.

I swear they both went down in my previous Acuras, depending on what side you had the mirror switch moved too.

I don't think I have ever had a car that turned the mirrors down before. But, it took me a year to notice it now, so you can't trust what I say! I'm old, I forget stuff.... a lot.
