Default passenger mirror goes down when in reverse

**sigh** you just reminded me of my E39 ///M5. I love that feature, so simple and elegant yet so bloody functional!

That is a god-like feature....

That said, I think, if it were possible on an A3, 0000-A3 would have been all over that bad boy!

my parents' TL has that feature. That plus the rear view camera work well together. Maybe we should pitch this idea on fourtitude and have OOOO-A3 figure it out =P

Quote from my friend who runs his own Audi/VW shop

"It is possible, but unfortunately not for north american cars Euro cars with the memory seat option have a different controller that enables that function. You may be able to source those controllers.....but not as cool as being able to click them on with Vagcom."

I have this feature!

Alls ya need to do is throw her into reverse to parallel park, click the door mirror toggle to the righthand setting and pull slightly back...and voila!

OK, it would be really nice to have the feature for real, as this car seems harder than any previous ones to parallel park...maybe due to my fear of curbing my wheels.

It comes with one of the packages - I think "premium". If you want to get a "loaded" car with S-line, it gets deleted with the sport seats. Go figure.
