  • Facelift elite mirror tilt question

    Got ghe 64plate FL elite ST biturbo and its been in to the dealers for some corrections one of which is the drivers door mirror wont tilt down in reverse even if selected in the vehicle settings. The passenger side does no problem.
    Dealer is telling me that some cars only tilt the passenger side.
    Cant see the point of that. Are they trying to pull some VX wool over my eyes?

    Are bot suposed to angle down ?

    If anyone can confirm that would be great

    Drivers side doesn't tilt just the passenger side. It's for when you're reverse parking up to a kerb hence why you don't need it on the right hand side as we drive on the left

      My old elite only ever did it on passenger side, in fact the option in the settings specifically mentioned passenger side mirror I think.

                  We're not in the US we're in the UK. The cars you hired for work also had the steering wheel on the left hand side but it's on the correct side here.

                              my old fl 64 plate only did passenger side, the new gs does neither and i miss that feature although I suppose the rear view camera and self park make it slightly obsolete but would still have liked it.
