    2017 Discovery Td6 HSE Lux Montalcino Red

    Powerfold Mirrors

    Well, having taken delivery of my D5 HSE Lux on Friday and getting a bit of time alone with her tonight to get settings as I want them, I note that the Powerfold Mirrors are a dealer configurable item. My D4 came already set from the factory.

    LR Online Owner Manual states "The door mirrors can be configured by a retailer/authorised repairer to automatically fold when the vehicle is locked and unfold when it is unlocked"

    Has anybody else had this configured or had the vehicle come already set up?

    My HSE folds on the first press of the lock button.

    And that's how I would have thought they were supposed to operate, but not the case !!

    2017 Discovery Td6 First Edition Namib Orange

    My First edition had the option switched off when I collected the car, I asked if it didn't have folding mirrors. They configured it in about 3 minutes.........

    It is the first car I have had where the dealer went through a configuration sheet with me a few days before collection, DAB radio stations etc. I was well impressed until I realised they had pretty much ignored it......

    TBH, i think a lot depends on your dealer, mine is spot on and i have a good relationship with the salesman, all my old presets from the D4 where carried forward, plus all the extra bits setup, the handover was around 90mins long, including a test drive to show the auto parking, both types...
    Maybe thats why "touch wood" i have not seen any issue, bar sometimes the locking takes a couple of touches on the handle.

    Yup, seems pretty much down to whether or not your dealer can be bothered to take the time to actually prepare and hand the vehicle over properly. Despite them having my vehicle with them for 3 weeks before it was delivered out to me, I was never given the option as to how it was to be set up.

    Any other dealer configurable functions that I / we should have been made aware of?

    Must admit I can't complain, my D5 arrived on the Thursday and I picked it up on the Saturday morning. Everything thing as it should.

    Not sure how much stuff dealers configure.
