Afternoon FL-ers

Well having had my Metro a couple of hours short of 5 days I appear to have found a glitch (JLR you gotta love em). As perscribed when reversing the mirrors move to their pre-determined position but upon returning to Drive the Drivers side wanders around before finally coming to rest pointing at the sky. Not a major issue but you do get tired of re-setting it.

Question is: Is this a known issue? and is there any quick fix for this before I take it off to Main Stealer for a warranty visit?

After you have readjusted the mirror you need to reset your memory seat position and store the setting to one of the 3 buttons on the seat. Your mirror should then return to that set position once they move back from the reverse dip position.

At least you have got a mirror, some in a van whacked mine off down a twisty road last night,naturally did not stop,so have just spent 2 hours on drive cutting a 6lt milk container to shape the corner,lumps of foam as packing,and good old gaffer tape to finish it off,swmbo was well impressed I said I might whack the other one off as well and we would have a matching pair,  gone
P38 v8 auto no problems,great howle from exhausts when giving it welly
Td5 auto head gasket,no5 pot not uncommon but good car.
1st Tdv6s manual epb problem fixed under warranty(stealer said"never heard of this before,i suggested he looked at d3 forum.
2nd Tdv6 se auto epb
3rd Tdv6 xs auto 2008,swmbo,s favourite.

I've had that happen twice now so when on narrow twisty roads I always power fold the mirrors. It helps a bit, but so many numptys don't know the width of their vehicle thinking it's 3 feet wider than it really is.
