Just noticed this for the first time.

 

haha YES, its a great feature for parallel parking and reversing in to a space. my friends are like wtf?? the 04 tilts both mirrors you just have to select which one

 

it is a nice feature that makes parking alot easier.....

 

that's a cool feature. my parents have a 2003 type s that does that too.

my friends 2004 bmw 330 has that feature too! us tsxers get jipped

 

didi the 2002 bmws 330 have that?

 

oh i so want that..... BOTH!

 

so which TLs mirrors do that? i never noticed that on my 00TL so im guessing it doesnt do it =(

 

hehe i have an 00 too... i just tried it it doesnt workk....

 

2002 works

dont know about 2001s

 

I thought maybe I bumped a switch that made it start doing that, it was odd that I have gone this long and never have noticed it.

 

beautiful thing about the manual it tells you this kind of stuff!

 

we dont have that feature in the 2000

 

I want it not that I have a ton of use for it, but I want it just to have it LOL

 

that makes 2 of us!

 

if you dont think you have it, you have to have your mirror control switch in the center position

 

allie and i dont have it!

 

does any1 know if the 01 has that?...kuz i dont think ive ever noticed that...

 

i dont think so. i think that came about in the 02 model. the way to find out is to move the mirror switch to the center position and put it into reverse. the mirror should tilt down.

 

i dont think any tl from 99-01 has is it.....unfortunately i have a 00!

 

Thats like following the directions when trying to put something together. Cheater.

 

That is correct. It only started on the TL from 02 and up. Yeah you can say we got jipped. Oh well! I have an 01.

 

nah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yeah only 02 and up has it. But the CL had it first then it carried on to the 02 and up TL.

 

reminds me of when my friend bought an 04 chevy avalanche this summer

look, i bought an avalanche

ok

check it out

if you insist

look the seats are heated

my tl has that

you can control the radio on the steering wheel

my tl has that

the mirrors tilt down when i go in reverse

my tl has that

it can tell you the outside temp

mt tl has that

it has an indash 6 cd changer

my tl......you know what? that's HOT!!

 

Great, now I can't get your signature "song" out of my head.

 

No...we don't

 

Did the reverse-tilt become standard in '02 ?

 

yes.

 

I see it now. I had my control to the middle position, thats probably why I have never noticed it happening before. Kind of scared me, thinking I usually use that mirror when I am backing up.

 

hmmm....wtf...i could've sworn the TSX i drove a few weeks ago had fold down mirrors....

 

:captainobvious:
^^ some of you deserve this right here

 

Yes it does.

 

Lol same thing here had a friend who just got a 04 Red Z71 Avalanche, and it just shows you that the Japs are WAYYYYYY ahead of Americans.

 

i dont either...

 

I'll agree that it's often more fun to figure things out for yourself, but there may be functions your car can perform that you might never figure out. This especially true for some of the newer cars with all the fun gadgets.
