I think he means the suggestion in post 175 to fold the mirrors backwards

Correct -- I should have just referenced that post...sorry for the confusion.

Would hope this works (a nice feature if your mirror gets hit). I am not willing to try it. I believe that the manual suggests using the automated folding in setting when going through a car wash which makes me think they are not flexible (kind of like me but stretching probably won't help your mirror).

In my 2015 Prestige, when you turn the wheel at slow speeds, the front fog lamp on that side turns on to illuminate your path. Fades after you straighten up. Pretty cool...

My 2013 Prestige with LED headlights does the same. First time I saw it thought it a cool... Told my wife and she couldn't care less.

All of them with LEDs do this (I have a '12 that does) - they're called adaptive cornering lights. Not much of a 'hidden gem' (they're advertised as doing such) but agree that they're cool nonetheless.

True, not "hidden" (it's clearly described in the manual) but still a "gem". The small diamond shaped lights located under the LED healight strips are actually called "Static Cornering lights" and each will switch on automatically when the steering wheel is turned at a certain angle at speeds up to 44 mph or when the turn signal is activated at speeds up to about 25 mph. Both lights can also be turned on manually by pressing the upper button to the left side of the headlight selector switch on the dash.

Hadn't found this in the manual, but noticed my volume on NAV prompts while driving was extremely low and difficult to hear. Finally found the volume control by pressing the Info button on the steering wheel - which causes her to state next comment. While she is talking, simply turning the volume wheel changes the navigation volume.

Not really a gem. The manual documents how to set the default nav command volume separately in the MMI settings. There are also other individual volume settings, i.e. music level during nav commands. Changing the volume control on the console or on the steering wheel will always override MMI settings.
