Could it something obscure like the wrong side motor as in if it was turned the other way it might be correct??

Not sure the reason for this thread but just FYI if you did not know. Certain model year got it with the parking sensors option it kept changing every 6 months. I will have the info somewere. The rest got it with luxury pack. The mirrors are different to the ones on the 'standard' cars. You didn't need highline for it to work.
You may know this already if so ignore me.

Cars of interest would be model years 2005 and 2006
2007 onwards would have GEN3 Door controllers

Mines a 2008 57 Reg UK car with

2. Lux Pack Folding mirrors
3. Highline Computer with Highline CCM
4. Memory Seats

If I remember you put the mirror adjuster to the N/S mirror and adjust as normal for a view to the rear, then when reverse is selected you then adjust the mirror on the N/S again to get a view of the curb/rear wheel, the mirror will them stay in this position until the vehicle is travelling in a forward direction and over 16 kph when the mirror will auto adjust to the normal view to the rear.

Snoopy i have heard that you couldn't get this function on a 2006 car,but GARYTC78 has this on his 56 plate,all though im not too sure if a 56 plate car uses a GEN 3 door controller or a GEN 2?

Stephen the 2007/2008 cars have this function in the door controller but when you look at etka all the gen 2 door controllers don't give you memory mirror info so i assume they don't have this!!!
now on a 2005 car you could have this so this is where im confused

2007/57 (MY08) with Winter Pack, Highline & CCM, Parking Sensors - I have mirror dip but no folding mirrors (still looking into whether or not my door controllers will support folding mirrors or not)
