From what I could find out yes I think?????? but I think you need to hold the lock button on the key fob for 2 seconds to make them fold (to much of a faff if you ask me) but then I've also read that It's not possible on an E53 with out buying a £150 intravee.

Maybe someone who has actually programmed it can chime in with confirmation....

intravee has the software option to close/open mirrors on lock/unlock.

if u have the coding kit, try changing SPIEGELABKLAPPEN_GM to aktiv.

don't take my word for it though - my mirrors don't fold  :P

Can not be done on e53 with ncs or any software. You need higher spec of the lcm module (e60) fitted and then maybe. ? Nice mod...
