    I really don't know! I haven't connected up to any other C7 than my own, which doesn't have ACC. Give me a shout if you're ever in my area and we can take a look-see, or you could see if anyone near to you has VCDS and will be willing to take a look.

    Cheers!

    Update! I now managed to get passenger mirror dip on reverse working. I was working blind, as VCDS currently has no info on my passenger door module. When selecting the module, you are greeted by the following warning:



    Don't be put off by this. The byte/bit combination to change is the same as on an A4 B8. Here are the steps:

    [Select]
    [52 - Door Elect, Pass]
    [Coding - 07]
    [Long Coding Helper]
    Click on Byte 4 (5th one along from the left)
    Set Bit 2 to "on"
    [Do It!]

    See the image below for the correct byte/bit to select:



    Cheers!

    Apologies for being thick here........

    I presume you have to download software - do you search for vcds and download any?

    Also how do you get the software to talk to the Audi, is this by some sort of wire?

    On mirror dip why would only the passanger mirror move?

    Lastly I think is this pretty easy to do?

    (sorry)

    I wondered why when the brochure said that electric folding mirrors came with the reverse gear dip mine wouldnt do it. I didnt realise you had to bugger about in all sorts of hidden menus! Why in the name of all thats holy does Audi make it so difficult to enable the above features? Reading this I still dont understand if you can access these menus in the car via the MMI, or if you need to plug in a computer!

    Er, you don't. At least I didn't.
    I have electric folding mirrors, never been near the car with VCDS, and the mirrors (driver or passenger, as you wish) do dip on reverse. Just as promised.
    On the driver's door-handle there is a three-way switch for the mirrors.
    - set to the left makes the passenger's mirror dip on reverse.
    - set to the middle engages the mirror heaters on both sides and disables dipping on both sides.
    - set to the right dips the driver's mirror on reverse.

    Is this some unique flaw in my wiring loom or is that the way it operates for anyone else?
