Shouldn't the mirrors tilt down once you put the transmission into 'R'? I can't find it in the manual. Is this a setup option or an appointment at MB Service Center?

 

you can set this through the setup options on the dash cluster. I can't remember the exact steps... I'll take a look later and try to get back if no one else does.

 

Make sure that your mirror adjustment setting on the dash is set to adjust the right side mirror - it will only tilt down if it's in that setting.

 

There are three things you need to do before this will work (at least for my '04 CLK320 cab):

1) Store the reverse position for the mirror.
2) Enable the option in the menus (Settings/Convenience, I think).
3) Make sure the passenger side mirror is selected.

These things are all described in the manual - I suggest you look for it, since storing the mirror reverse position was not intuitive for me.

 

Thank you for your help. I set it up finally.
