Just picked up my new Passat. Amazing car! Quick question: in the manual it says if you adjust the left mirror, the right mirror will adjust at the same time. I can't get mine to do that. Is it a typo in the manual?

View 5 RepliesMy 2003 has the tow mirrors. When using the power mirror control they seem to go opposite of what is intended. So when I want it to go up, it will go out and down. Or something to that effect. What the culprit could be?

View 5 RepliesHow to set the passenger side view mirror memory adjustment? I am unclear on a couple of things:
1) With the transmission in any position other than reverse, adjust the passenger side mirror as you like it.
2) Put the car in reverse, and adjust the same mirror to show you what you want to look at when you have the transmission in reverse.
3) Now press the appropriate seat memory buttons, to store that configuration as your 'driver preference', and the car will remember both settings.
Does #3 mean that you turn off the car leaving it in reverse? Leave it running - in reverse? And then you press "Set" and then the seat number button - and then "Set" again?
My left side mirror, motor will move left and right but it will not move up and down. Is there a DIY way to fix this? Is it a motor problem? Can I buy the part and fix it?
View 7 RepliesMy '11 Ltd. r.v.mirror has the backup camera, and is attached to the windshield 2 inches below the top, order to clear the GPS, antenna, theft, ( ? ) hardware..... I'm over 6 ft. and it seems to needlessly block too much of the front field of vision,......anyway, I've tried to adjust it as high as it'll go and it's still an inch from the top. Is this as far up as these mirrors can be set?
View 3 RepliesSo I can successfully set the height at which the tailgate should stop, and in fact, the "power" function seems to stop there. But once the motors stop doing their thing, it just keeps slowly creeping up, as though the gas pressure in the struts is too strong for the tailgate weight. It's brand new, so this wouldn't be surprising. But is that the way it's supposed to work? If so, what's the point of setting a height at all? In my case, I want it top stop just a couple inches before hitting my garage door.
View 1 RepliesWhenever the wife drives my car she adjusts the rear rear view window which means I have to adjust it when I get it back. Each time the mirror is adjusted the rear view camera in the mirror gets the blue screen of death. A little later the rear view mirror will start working again.

I've had my prius for about 8 months now and to be honest, I'm not 100% sure how the climate control works. I just realized that one of the buttons I've been pressing is an air pollen filter. I've also recirculated the air and managed the fan speed with the up/down.
View 19 RepliesI'm having a problem with my power mirror switch.
1. The fold flat function doesn't work at all
2. The driver mirror won't move with the switch. No motor sound at all
3. The heated mirror's function doesn't work.
I checked the connections and there fine. It's just a very annoying problem with fog on the mirror's with the weather getting colder now.
I recently purchased a 2014 xle plus. The passenger seat is VERY low and there is no vertical adjustment control. Is there any way the seat can be raised. My wife is 5' 1" and cannot see over the dashboard.
View 1 RepliesEvertime I turn left the brake light, traction control and stability control lights come on and the car starts dinging. Mechanic says it could be front wheel bearings because they are tied to the ABS system??? But I have been seeing alot about wheel speed sensors?
Second, everytime I brake suddenly, a cloud of smoke comes from the front end and there is a burning oil smell. The oil is fine and no leaks. Again mechanic says it could be a cracked CV boot throwing grease?
Lastly everytime I put in reverse or when I lightly put pressure on the brakes when driving I get this noise like a humming (errrrrrr) noise. Its not the grinding/squealing noise you would get when brake pads needs replaced. I only have 60k miles on this.

View 4 RepliesJust the other day I noticed that my passenger side mirror will move up and down, but not right and left. Drivers side works fine. The mirrors are all stock, I haven't changed them yet. It's been pretty cold out lately and I recently washed my car (on a warmer day). Could this be the cause?

View 1 RepliesOn my 2005 GX, the passenger side mirror can move only left to right (horizontally) but it cannot go up or down. I did some reading and it looks like this is a 'common' problem with Lexus mirrors due to the auto tilt-down feature. Something inside must be worn out or broken and it does not move any more.
The driver side mirror moves fine in every direction, so i am pretty sure it's not a defective mirror switch. The question is.... since this is such a common problem, is there a fix for it, other than replacing the entire mirror assembly? Is there a "gear kit" or something else that i can buy, disassemble the mirror and fix it?
I found this thread on the LX forum, looks useful [URL] .....
Yesterday, I was driving my IS250 at over 100mph on I-5 North and from time to time, I heard some hitting maybe from rocks? on my left side mirror. If it was just once, I would of thought it would be a rock but kept making that sound. When I got off the freeway I checked to see if it was any rock chips but I couldn't find chips or dings.
