I just got my car back from the dealer and i just noticed when i was locking the car the mirrors dident go in .. i though it may be that the battery is low .. so i stood infront of the dirver side door and nothing !!!

i think i got a cip upgrade bacause i was getting a few random errors

so .. is there somewhere in the i drive where i go in and get this option to work again ????

I just purchased my 2007 525i and mine doesn't have the auto folding mirrors.
You sure it used to work?

P.S.B if you want your side mirrors to fold in automatically when you keep your finger on the lock button.. you have the ask the dealer to manually enable this feature as it is disabled by default..
and i imagine that everytime the car goes in for programing they would have to enable it again. so if you perviously asked for it to be enabled and it was working, then perhaps your car got a new CIP upgrade, and they forgot to enable it....
