Power fold (Side) Mirrors. How do these work?
I can't find any info on them in the LR2 manual.

On UK from GS upwards they auto fold when car locked and if you press and hold L & R button on mirror/window switches on drivers door they will fold in manually if required.

That said since LR software update I have to press unlock then lock on fob to powerfold when locking car now.

I also had experience of manual powerfold not working after update until I reset windows as described in Manual.

Hope this helps

Whether the mirrors fold in on locking is configurable by the dealership. So perhaps they made a mistake in the configuration after applying your update?

The dealer tried to fix the problem but told me they could not. They were going to speak to LR and get back to me - 3 months ago - still waiting

I tried holding the L&R buttons this weekend, it didn't work. The dealer did an update last time I took it in. I'll try using the Key fob today.

I had this problem after an update - reseting electric windows cured it

I have been told some time ago by a Peugeot dealer that factories are configuring the autofold depending on the delivery country. So the Peugeots deliverded in Russia did not have the aufold option configured by the factory as heavy winters mean snow and ice on the autofold mechanism and it can freeze. In the Peugeot handbook it said that before winter starts the car has to brought to the dealer and have the autofold canncelled. It is not normal that the autofold does not work if you press both fold buttons. Best would be if the dealer could enable the autofold by pressing both buttons and leave the autofold alone if using the keyfob.

I don't believe this option is installed in the North American models. Apparently there is a "open windows from the key fob" option that we also don't get the either.

so maybe the UK folks can help us retro fit our us spec .. new window controller...and new mirrors...part numbers (:

Hi Muddywheels, if you're still around did you ever solve this problem mine does the same and I hate it!
I want them to fold on locking, period!

Still pop back now and then

Fixed my mirrors by reseting electric windows as per handbook - hope this helps

Quote:

Window reset
The windows will need to be reset if the battery is disconnected, becomes discharged, or power supply is interrupted.
Reset as follows :-
1. Close the window fully.
2. Release the switch, then lift it to the close position and hold for two seconds.
3. Open the window fully. 4. Release the switch, then push it to the
open position and hold for two seconds.
5. Lift and release the switch to operate the one touch function.
6. Repeat the procedure on each window.

Buying RRS did not fix my problems - just gave me more  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
