2003 C180 Auto Kompressor Folding Door Mirror Issue

Dear All & Seasons Greetings,

I bought a 2003 C180 Auto Kompressor recently and I cannot get the door mirrors to fold in when parked. I've checked the manual and my car does not have the additional bottoms to activate folding on the door mirror adjust panel to the right of the dash board. I have also been through the computer menu using the multifunction steering wheel cannot find the 'compliance' menu to activate the door mirrors.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Westrock200

Happy Xmas

Thanks for your reply. I will check the VIN. Could you recommend a source to check/verify the VIN?

It means post your VIN and someone can look it up for you to see what options your vehicle came with.

It is what it is. With some $$ and technical knowledge, you can search this forum on how to retrofit Euro electric folding mirrors to your car.

You do not have folding mirrors,however the good news is that you have through loading---good for loading your ski's and snow blower
