The passenger side mirror is supposed to tilt when I reverse in 535 however now it does not do it. I checked and the mirror switch in the door is switched to the passenger side. Everything also seems to be ok in I Drive.

Any ideas....

Is the switch not supposed to be in the driver side position?

My friend with an 08 335 called and said his sunroof wouldn't tilt up and never has since he bought it. I asked how he pushed the button and he said he pushed it forward. I asked him to try pushing up towards the sky and TA DA!!! Now that would have been embarassing at the dealership. He's had the car for a year!
