Reverse Tilt Mirrors

denwishy · 04-06-2009, 10:22 AM

Hi,

I have a 2008 BMW 335, I was just wondering if both the driver and passenger side mirrors are support to tilt when i put in reverse or just the passenger side?

Thanks,
Wendy

Just the passenger side.

All three mirrors tilt

Just the passenger side and the window selector 'thing' has to be set to the driver's door mirror for it to tilt down in reverse.

I thought all 4 of them did...? Am I wrong?

Yes, but only when you are backing up down a hill. Then, the whole car tilts.

So it should just be the passenger side then? Thanks!

I though RyanDe680's reply was very clear.

you said all 3 mirrors tilt in your first post, I wasn't sure what you meant so that's why i asked again.

Clear now.

my drivers seat turns around and i use the rear seat steering wheel

my first response was a jab at you failing to 1) read the owner's manual and/or 2) search E90post. Try either of the 2 options I listed, you'll enjoy your car that much more after finding out all the nifty gadgets and functions from reading the owner's manual.

You got the uDrive option? I didn't get it. How do you like that?

Sometimes the manual is not always accurate. The voice commands were actually wrong, I just wanted to be sure that's why i posted the question. I actually read the manual and it does say passenger side mirror tilt. But for whatever reason i always thought that both of them tilted.

OP - also check the thread titled "things you didn't know about the 3 series". This topic as well as a thousand other common questions are answered there.
