I have 1st Edition and the manual says you can program the passenger mirror to dip when you put the vehicle into reverse. However I have failed miserably and cannot get it to work. Has anyone got this working? Any tips?
It is the one thing my old CR-V used to do automatically.
Thanks
Dip mirror on reverse
You need to select L on the mirror control. When you reverse the mirror will then dip. You can leave the mirror control on L so that when you reverse it happens automatically. However, if you move the rotary knob your left mirror will move! To set it up unlock the vehicle with the key to which the settings will be assigned, select reverse, adjust left mirror, put into neutral, switch off ignition. The settings should now be saved so when you reverse the mirror will dip provided L is selected. Definitely a bit clunky compared to my last car which like yours just did it automatically. This was on a max, not sure if you have this on the 1st edition.

As far as I can tell this isn’t on the ID.4. 1st edition. I’ve just tried to find it again as it was discussed in a previous post. My solution is quite simple, as the mirrors are quite large I’ve tipped them both down a little more than normal. It works for me when reversing into parking spaces. I’d trade the camera any day for a dipping kerbside mirror especially with very expensive 20” wheels.

I can't get this to work on mine either. I even emailed VW directly and asked if my car had this facility. I gave them my registration and VIN and their response was, "check with your dealer". I despair.

I remember seeing this as option that you could turn on in the settings before you press the brake pedal to turn on the car. Once the car is 'on' that setting disappears such that you can't select it anymore. It was weird. I think it's not available on the 1st Edition.
I tried this today and got exactly the same as you. I wonder if this will become an option in a future software update.tkid wrote: ↑Tue Nov 02, 2021 7:42 pm I remember seeing this as option that you could turn on in the settings before you press the brake pedal to turn on the car.

Picked up a 2022 Life Pure this week and noticed the car didn’t have this option in the menu. I tried the instructions given in the manual (see attached photos) however have had no luck. Wonder if this option has been purposefully omitted on the Life trim, or whether it’s something that could be coded in (by dealer or by OBD Eleven)

Picked up our Life 52kw yesterday. Base model, so none of the memory seat options associated with mirrors apply.
Tried the exact same instructions from the online manual, via internet, and no success.
We are also on version 2.3.
I’ll keep trying, but initial thoughts are this feature is not standard on entry level cars. I’ll ring the dealer tomorrow if no success.
Unless somebody else can fix sooner of course?

That’s a shame! Definitely a first world problem. I suppose I will have to manually twist and push the dial and dip the mirror.
