				Have you got the switch set to fold?  I think you can set it from the iDrive as well.  It’s a codable function that I’ve never used having had an E53 as well, and those were known for micro switch faults (in the mirror housing).

				Having done a bit more digging, this needs coding with something like NCS Expert, Carly or Bimmercode.  Dealers would have asked on delivery if you wanted it.  Later models had the function included as an iDrive setting.
