Reversing mirrors
Hi guys , collected my XC90 last Thursday & I’m in love. I’ve think I’ve got the car set up the I want it apart from the dipping door mirrors when in reverse.
I have the option tick for both mirrors to dip in the cars settings but the angle they go to is too steep, how do I get the car to remember the position I like them to be at? Last edited by Scotia64; Sep 22nd, 2019 at 11:05. |

If you have surround cameras fitted, these give a good view of the curb to the side of the car. My car's mirrors are therefore set not to dip in reverse. Not that I'd want them to regardless.

You adjust the non-dipped position and the mirror dips by a preset degree (ie. relative to the non-dipped position..) It works for me (I've only set the passenger side to auto dip..) but I've seen a lot of complains about Volvo not giving an option to adjust the dipped position independently..

You could adjust your seat position to work better with the dipped mirror position too. I find that when reversing in a really tight spot, when looking in the mirror it appears that you are about to crunch the bodywork but a banksman will indicate I can get passed.
