Make sure that the mirror adjustment switch is in the center position. If it is on either side then the reverse mirror will not work.

your mirror switch (where you select which mirror you want to adjust l/r) has to be in the middle position (the down arrow icon)

Then it will work.

As for the car wash:

You have to worry about SCRATCHING your rims...

The rims on the CL-S buldge out farther then the tires... therefore the guide rails in a drive through car wash will scratch the rim.

The only option is to use a car wash that you dont have to drive through.

I use one that you just park in... and a automatic wand thing goes around and does its dirty (or clean) work. heh.

good luck bro.

Make sure that your power mirror selector switch is in the middle and not on the drivers or passenger side or the tilt will not work!!
