New to me 2010 G55- questions

Hello,

Just purchased a 2010 G55- white with black Designo interior. Love the truck!

Two questions:
1. why no dipping passenger mirror in reverse in 2010? My owners manual clearly states this is a Canada only feature. WTF?

2. Noise coming from under center console area when key is on, whether the truck is running or not- can only hear when radio is off. No noise when key is off, thankfully. Sounds like a stepper motor, very quiet rert, pause, rert, pause, rert noise. Any ideas here?

Thanks in advance!
John

I noticed my multi contour functions on the driver's seat not working today on my drive in. Perhaps related? I hear no pump or air hissing- just seem "dead". Any info to share on this?

Thanks for this. I checked. 2010 seems to be the only year where this is not available in the U.S. here's my 2010 instructions:

I agree. Same prob here in my passenger side. I have an extended warranty and asked them to check... the dealership said they had a test for it and it was fine. I dont know. Maybe theyre not wanting to cover it.

At MB service facility now. They say they found an air line that connects both lumbar seats leaking. Part is inbound and I'll have in back EOD. Relatively simple fix. Hope yours comes out well also.
