Automatically fold mirrors when car is locked?

joquijada · 09-24-2020, 09:10 AM

I programmed my brand new BMW x1 2021 to automatically hold my side view mirrors when I lock the car using the BMW lock button in the key FOB. It was pretty easy. I followed youtube video here to learn how to use the BimmerCode app, and paid $30 each respectively (total $60) for the BimmerCode app to unlock all features, and the ODB bluetooth adapter

See this video of the result

Is there a way to make the mirrors fold immediately when you lock the car instead of having to hold the button for a moment?

Yes, through Bimmercode. As soon as you hit lock, I have mine fold. And as soon as you hit unlock, they unfold. Both without a long press.

What settings do you have? I have BimmerCode and have the mirrors folding in and out when locking and unlocking but not instantly.

It's been awhile since I plugged in so I'll have to check next time I connect. Sorry I'm not more specific.

I had my coded in my 2018 F83, you have to hold the key fob down for a few seconds, there is a weird delay to close the mirrors.
