Do side mirrors tilt down when in reverse? I didn't remember to check that when i test drove the e60 and i know the gs300 has that feature when you put the car into reverse for parking.

Is it a standard feature ? I got the elec auto dim int/ext mirrors but none of the side mirrors tilt down when in reverse, even though I change the switches.
