Curb Mirror Tilt Adjustment

[Razor]

Does anybody have some advice on how to adjust the angle of tilt for the curb mirror (i.e. passenger-side wing mirror that tilts down while reversing) of an E90?

I had been able to adjust the curb mirror tilt on my E46 by switching the mirror selector to the passenger side while in reverse gear and making the adjustment via the thumbstick on the driver's door. Now, with the E90, switching the wing mirror selector to the passenger side while in reverse gear deactivates the curb mirror and restores the angle to normal, making it impossible to adjust the angle.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Hmmm... I tried bro but it didn't work. Guess the tilt angle is fixed. Anyway, I find the tilt insufficient to be effective.

My sentiments exactly! I'm looking for a way to adjust the tilt further...

Thanks for validating my experience with the E90 curb mirror adjustment, pengful

Hey, check13! Thanks for the validation. A check with PML confirms that the tilt on the E90 cannot be adjusted. Sigh!

I'll be checking up with some external workshops if time permits. I do miss this feature on the E46. It's a small thing, I know, but it's exactly the fact that it's a seeming trivial feature omission that gets to me.

If anybody has a solution, do holler!
