Is there some setting to get side mirror to point down when in reverse. It was working not sure what I set wrong. Now when I reverse the side mirror (right) does not point down.

 

you leave the mirror adjustment selection switch on "right". only the right (passenger) side mirror will tilt when in reverse.

 

lol yeah, excatly what tsxv6guy said. when i first got my car it worked, then i swtched it to the other side and i was close to bringing it to the dealer cuz i thought it didnt wrok. but azine ppl helped me

 

It's one of my favorite features of this car.

 

I guess the Engineer who designed this awesome () was high when he pt it together.

 

+1 didnt have this on my old car. makes parking and such a lot easier

 

Does anyone know if the 1st gen TSX had this?

 

It is an awesome feature. I haven't scuffed a rim yet (And I live in the city!). Takes a lil while before u learn how close u can get to a curb. And no the 1st Gen did not have this feature.

Kinda wish the drivers side would do the same if I flipped the switch to the driver.

 

Awesome!!

I still have 2 questions for anyone who could answer:

1. Do both Automatic and Manual trannies have this feature?

2. Does the Non-Tech (Non-Navi) have this feature aswell?

Thanks,
Guys/Gals

 

i have an auto non-tech and i have this feature. and so glad that i do.

 

Anyone with a manual? Does the manual tranny have this feature to? I'm assuming it would but just to clarify.

 

agreed ed...no more curb checks with your wheels...just watch the mirror and all is well!!

 

my 6spd has this, have to put the switch to the R position

 

My 6 speed MT standard has this feature. I really wish I could just leave the mirror position in the middle and have both mirrors change positions when I shift to reverse though (i.e. to see lines when I back up into a parking space). Just a minor annoyance though.

 

Thank you for making this thread....i thought mine was acting up aswell, but now that i see what im doing wrong simple fix and a parking i will go, thx!

 

Yep, or parking on the left side of a one-way street (in North America or China).

 

Good information here. I was about to take mine to the dealer to get the drivers side mirror fixed since it doesn't tilt no matter where the selector switch is. Now I understand that it only works on the passenger side. Thanks all!

Just joined the TSX family after having a TL Type-S and an MDX, so the fact that the drivers mirror doesn't tilt is new to me. As usual AZ comes in handy and provides me with the information I need!

 

im curious... didn't everyone get an owners manual with their car?

 

Yes, at least I hope they did. But reading it is a total different story.

Since my dealer had to truck mine in from another province two years ago, (took almost a week), I requested a copy of the owner's manual to read over before hand. I know, it's pretty anal.

 

do any of the 2nd gens remember mirror position....???

 

sadly, no

 

tisk tisk.....would it have killed acura to add that feature ? lol....
