OK so to clarify,

2005-6 - no powerfold at all
2006-10 - powerfold by pushing knob down
2010 onward - automatic powerfold when doors are locked

I suspect that the 2010 is via CANbus so not easy to do on earlier models.

When I get time I will spend some money on Topix to get the pre 2010 circuits.

Many thanks everyone.

Yup, my first edition (2005) has powerfold, but not tied into the central locking.

Peanut, will you let us all know the outcome. As the freelander 2 does it on door locking. Cant understand why RRS a much more expensive car doesn't. No point in all of us spending money to find out.  itisme

I'm sure it could be enabled...has anyone looked?

OK

I was just taking the previous posts for information.

Up to 2010 - Powerfold by pressing knob
After 2010 - Powerfold can be linked to locking.

It make take me a while to investigate but I will let you know.

Hi,

Not sure of the earlier cars but I think the "fold on locking" may be tied into "keyless entry".

My dealer told me when i picked up my MY10 TDV8 that "her "ears" are folded in if she's locked". It makes sense as there is no other obvious indication !!!

I can't believe that for the last 3 years of ownership I thought power fold mirrors was an option, and my 2006 North American Spec SC didn't have it....

After reading this topic, I spoke to my mechanic who's doing the paintwork and other stuff. Asked him to check. He said he already had and the switch is bust and has been ordered. He also said if you have a "wing mirror" graphic on the mirrorswitch with 'tick' or 'árrow' on it, it means it's got power fold mirrors

I told him I saw that, but, thought it was idiots like me to make it crystal clear that this is the mirror adjust switch...

Now suitably embarrassed... but will get power fold mirrors next week

Lesson learned...RTFM

To the OP, MrFrog and others thanks for bringing to my attention that a do have power fold and my switch is just knackered


Cheers

I was going to say thet the L & R on the switch was for Left & Right, not Land Rover, but that would be taking the P***.  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
