Mine do on the 2010 model but my older 2007 didn't do this, nor could I find how to enable it. |

to clarify, when you stand outside the FF and press the remote to lock the door, the mirrors would close...

yes the reason behind it as far as I am aware, is so you don't unfold and fold them in a tricky tight situation, like your garage or if you parked close to something hard outdoors like a wall. as Stan said not available pre 2010!!, button on drivers door only. Current: TDV8 (3.6) RRS HSE

You can get aftermarket modules (for about £20) that use the lock circuit to activate the power fold mirrors so maybe your car has one of these in the drivers door panel. Tom

I thought you could ask the dealer to programme this on 2006-2009 cars?

Well the diagram seems fairly straight forward. Needs to be connected to the fold button and the central locking circuit which are all in the drivers door. I might buy one when my car is back on the road to see how easy it is. Touch wood. Tom
