In R mine stays down.

I hardly use this function. I keep the switch to the passenger site, only when in doubt with the curb I switch to the drivers site so I can see it.

Hmm this seems odd. Never heard of this issue before. Mine stays down in R till i engage another gear. Very weird though since you're saying it doesn't do it regulary...

Switch the side view mirror adjustment selector to the driver's side, should solve your problem.

Looks from the post that had already been tried.

And as we're all aware, the dipping feature is disabled by any other setting.

Switched the mirror switch to passenger side, mirror came back up; switch back to driver side, and it started flapping again.
