Folding mirrors have a mind of their own

Nice E90 · 12-06-2005, 08:10 PM

During the first couple of weeks with our E90 the mirrors did not fold when we locked the car, which was the way we liked it. Now every time we lock the car the mirrors fold in.

I could not find if there is a way to adjust this so they do not fold in when we lock. Is this adjustable, or are we stuck with them folding every time we lock?
Thanks

Mine only fold in when I press the button so there's got to be a setting for it. I didn't even know you could set it to fold everytime you locked the car.

I have CA and I have to touch the groves longer to fold the mirrors. If I just touch it and quickly release then only the doors lock and by holding my finger down longer then the mirrors fold-in.
