Hi Guys,
Another quick question. I’ve got the Lux pack & Highline computer. The passenger mirror is set to dip when reverse is engaged (and mirror switch is set to L) and then it adjusts back to normal view when taken out of reverse.
Everythings worked perfectly well for a couple of days... however now the mirror won’t return to its normal postion unless I manually select the R position on the mirror switch (or remove the key)... it used to do it automatically.
I’ve checked the Convenience settings in the Menu & everything’s as it should be.
Any thoughts... Cheers... Hotrod

Mine started doing this at times but now seems to have rectified itself, it seemed to coinside with its first service for some reason :huh:
-
mine did it.if i remember correctly had to reset been ok since, just stick it in reverse,switch mirror to L and ajust to required angle then stick it back in neutral
-
cheers fellas,
I’ll try resetting myself first... cheers... Hotrod
-
Hi tried resetting it... or just fiddling about (technical term)... still doesn’t function.
Any more clues, as it seems rather trival to travel back to the dealers for.
Cheers... Hotrod

(bump) mine too...anyone any ideas??? still its booked for a service next week will get it fixed under warranty.
-
Someone on the Mark V suggested using the other key... tried that... no different!

Hi Guys,
All back to normal now, passenger mirror lens returns to normal after 10 mph.
Don’t know why... just fiddled about!
Cheers... Hotrod

Iv got this dipping mirrors on my R32...wheres the button, to u jsut turn the nob down?? Im sure you could set like a default to see the pavement etc then it re adjusts?
-
Lux Pack = folding in / out mirrors?
If so, ive got that but mine never dips when in reverse.....

It should do. :shocked:
-
my old 05 GTi had fold in/out mirrors ie lux pack but never had mirror tilt in reverse.Im sure that was added from 06/07 model year (56 plates)
-
I've got an 05 (55) it doesnt do it at all....just got the car so I actually dont know if it ever did.
Can anyone with the lux pack on an 05 or 55 confirm or deny if they have this feature? Car is booked for a service next week and I have mentioned it to the dealer to check its operation :rolleyes:
many thanks in anticipation

Hi guys,
The dipping passenger mirror setting is accessed via the highline computer... via Convenience settings.
You can turn it on or off... plus a myriad of other subtle menu features on lighting delay, footwell light brightness, etc.
Quite clever really!
-
via convienience settings I only get access to the mirrors option which allows either factory reset, individually or together.....perhaps it was never available on my build...is there another option under this setting?

There’s another setting (in the Convenience menu) on the latest build, which allows you to activate/deactivate passenger mirror dipping on reverse.

Yes there are changes between your Highline computer no golf clubs at all,to the later 56>> onward builds.My highline has more options then it did in my 1st GTi.
