Firstly, apologies if this particular issue has already been discussed somewhere on the forum. I've searched carefully for it but found no reference.
I have a 53-plate car which amongst other things has the 'driving position memory system'. In the course of an overhaul last year the vehicle was retrofitted with power-fold electrochromic door mirrors and I had thought the door mirror dipping function would also become available. According to the manual this dips the passenger side mirror by 7 degrees when reversing, to give a better view of the kerb or whatever.
The very competent independent who did the retrofit reported that the car would not accept this function being programmed via WDS. I recently had occasion to discuss the issue with the local dealer, with whom I have a good relationship. They had a quick look with the newer diagnostic systems and also couldn't find a way to programme it, so they asked Jaguar. Predictably they got short shrift ("We do not support modifications which depart from the original build specification").
Does anyone know how -- or whether -- this can be done, or is something like a BPM firmware upgrade required?
Many thanks in advance.
John
