last week my RS3 gets an magnetic ride calibration, they say
When the car gets totally cold the safety systems do an reset on his own.
I drive home and the car drive much better, more sticky,

I set the car at home, and go with the other car one week to belgium for work.
Today i came back, and found my car with the mirrors all the way to the front.
So the glass is side way

I cant push them back.
Drive to a dealer but they say you must make an order.
Can someone help

I hear that the mirrors can flip to the front,
Try pushing them back it's worth a punt,
They can be reset to position with a Google hunt,
Ring your dealer and tell him he's a ****.

Do your have electric folding mirrors and do they go to the normal "open" position when you lock the car?

If so, I think what's happened is that when your car has been closed/locked with the mirrors folded in, someone will have manually pulled them back out not realising. They will probably pull back to the normal position but it does require a good bit of force to do it though.

Hah that's a good point, they'll mis misaligned (ie, their "in" position is set to "out" position) so when they fold out they fold forwards. I bet that looks really mental, like the car has had a stroke
