Without offending you, everyone should read the fucking manual, there is so many interesting things, it's too bad that you find them out when you are selling the car

Dealer dropped the ball on this one. Customer is supposed to be informed of these items upon delivery along with NAV tutorial, seat operation, etc.

I use this feature quite a bit. I am a freak when it comes to where I park. If I can't park at the back of the lot a mile away from other cars, then I at least try to get a spot on the end. I use the tilt down feature to make sure I get as close as possible to the curb, leaving a lot of space between me and the car next to me.

My wife's Lexus has this as well, though both mirrors tilt down simultaneously on hers. I thought something was wrong with the car because sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. Of course I came to find out it had to do with the mirror selection switch.

Great feature IMO!

They should both tilt down at the same time.

I use this feature all the time too.. though I wish it tilted a bit more down but it's okay...
Now,auto folding mirrors would be the next great feature. When I was in South Korea, all the cars mirrors fold in on key-off... so it's not a hard to add feature!

This feature is definitely useful and prevents curbing the wheels when parking next to a curb.

Once you start using this feature, you'll rely on it a lot-especially the passenger side mirror.

Hell, this option is old being my 2002 had tilt mirrors. But I don't recall the "Fucking" feature in the manual. Maybe it IS time to buy a new Acura!

I usually start out with a new product, including my new TL, with reading the manual. It may seem like we know everything, but there are some minor details that we may miss and that may be useful.

Having helped write the fucking manual I can tell you there is an app for that for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices.
