Hi, I have started to experience that the right side mirror goes passed the normal open position to fold all the way up pointing to the bonnet. Tried the window end position reprograming to no joy.

 

I have tried the search function and had a quick look and didn't seem to find anything. Sorry if I am mistaken.

 

Also, is there possible to reprogram the folding mirrors to fold on a single push instead of a long push?

There have been several posts on this over the years.

 

Some cars randomly fix themselves, some have had the internal mirror switch replaced, others simply forced the mirror back to the correct position which somehow resets the return position.

Mine did this when the mirror got out of sync after being frozen in place on a very frosty night. I found that after letting them unwind to the outer position it was then possible to then 'click' the mirror housing (which had gone loose) back onto the carrier mechanism beneath it and all was sorted.

 

Needless to say, I no longer fold the mirrors in when I know the temperature is going to be significantly sub-zero..

I'm sorry, I tried a search and it did not show what I tried to solve. Will look closer next time.

Thanks! Gonna check that!

Swedzilla, did you manage to sort it out?

I have the same problem since a few weeks back. Mine just started out of the blue doing this, no cold weather, snow, ice, wet... just a summer day. Its like the stopping mechanism has moved from its normal ~90 degree position way forward. 
 

It folds back in nicely all the way but then folds itself all the way out when I try resetting it. 
 

One strange thing which annoys me the most now is that about 1/3 of the times I hop in the car and start it the mirror then folds itself towards the front from the normal position sort of to seek the locking mechanism thats sitting out of place.
 

Have read threads about this problem on the forum, have tried to stop it manually etc without success.
