Reverse Mirror Dip
Hi all
I’ve had numerous vehicles with reversing passenger mirror dipping. I like reading manuals. I cannot fathom how to adjust the dip angle of the passenger mirror when putting the car into reverse. The mirror dips so much that I can barely work out what I’m looking at. Any solution? Thanks :-) |

Yeah BMW has it set up so if you try to set the location when its dipped- it reverts back to the regular setting.
Its weird.

You can get it coded to tilt to a less severe angle. I had it that way until I got a software update that erased all of my coding. Haven't had a chance to recode it.

Thanks for everyone’s replies. Ive had many BMW’s over the years, how bizarre that they’ve chosen to fix what is such an adjustable setting. At least I know I’m not kissing something and the 360 camera works pretty well

Been coding that feature a lot. I need to see how close my rear wheel to the curb, instead of how many used straws laying by the curb.

The Bimmercode thing looks great. Of the options above, the different interior colour options look interesting. I really like the blue but its too bright at the top level for dark driving.
I have now turned the curb dip off. |
