Just taken delivery of my new A4 Avant. Totally loving it, but missing my wing mirrors tilting downwards when I select reverse gear (didn't realise it wasn't standard)... Does anyone know if this can be retrofitted for reasonable cost?

Cheers in advance!
 
Do yiu have folding door mirrors?

If so put your car in reverse and adjust the mirror for kerb veiw that should work
 
I have the tilting feature you describe on the Avant I'm hoping to collect on Thursday. I've never had it on any previous cars and I have one question: if I'm reversing into a space in the car park (as opposed to next to the kerb) and I want to see where I am in relation to the car on my left (rather than the ground) can I switch the tilting feature off?
 
Just leave the mirror function button in the 0 position it won't tilt then.
 
No I don't have folding mirrors, just standard electric mirrors that come with S-Line spec. Can this be activated via VCDS?
 
Also excuse the stupid question but how do I find someone with VCDS to make the change? (I'm in Edinburgh)
