I am considering a 2011 X5 Xdrive 30D,which I have been told does not have the auto-tilt mirror for parking. I currently have this on my 330i and wouldn't wish to be without again. Does anyone know what this option may be linked to (i.e.: is it linked to the electric memory seats, etc.) and whether or not it can be retrofitted?
Vehicle is in a different location to home so not easy for me test drive yet, hence receiving amswers to questions at present.
Cheers

Re: Mirror auto-tilt for parking
Thanks. What triggers mirror to tilt? In my 330i the switch has to be set for the driver's mirror. Is there a similar setting in 2011 X5, or does it do so automatically regardless of settings, once reverse is selected?

Re: Mirror auto-tilt for parking
I thought electric memory seats were standard on dynamic pack SE models and M sports.

Re: Mirror auto-tilt for parking
I 'think' my 2011 x5 does, but will have to check. Mind you, the size of the mirrors are so big you probably won't notice.
Re: Mirror auto-tilt for parking
Mirror selector has to be switched over to driver side as well.
As im the only one that drives my car, i have seat mem. slot 2 programmed to have both mirrors point down - makes it easier parking.
