my mirrors fold if i push the button down and dip if i engage reverse, so i assumed it just needed programming to fold when locking the car |

You can run a wire from the central locking to get the mirror to fold in, but that means it will do it every time it auto locks or you'll u want to lock the car when driving through dodgy areas Bodsys Brake Bible

Not from the key fob I'm afraid, but should from the rotary switch.

My old pre-facelift did, just had to push rotary knob downwards to fold and push down again to unfold. I believe some may have had manually operated as opposed to electrically operated one's, as it was a 2009 UK spec. if that makes any difference. Cheers Col |

Mine fold manually. In Aust the spec of the vehicle was based on the engine - with the TDV6 being the poverty model. Next higher spec was attached to the petrol V8 and TDV8 then the top spec was attached to the Supercharged V8. There was no HSE etc.

Even in the UK there were a few things the petrol got than the diesel didn't.
