Two questions for the gurus today:

1. Does anyone know if there is a way to program the passenger side mirror to automatically tilt down towards the curb when the car is put in reverse? And then go back to its proper position when shifting out of reverse?

2. When starting my car, the steering wheel ever so slightly adjusts itself into the position saved in the memory seat settings. Didn't notice it until I saved a seat position that was aggressively different than my prior saved seat position. Is there a way to program this "car off" position of the steering wheel and drivers seat? In other words, is there a memory seat setting I can program for when the car is being turned off, so that the steering wheel can retract to a setting I define, so the seat can move to a setting I define? It appears the car is already doing this, I just don't know how to set that position to what I desire.

Car in question is 2009 S8.

Thanks in advance.

1. Keep the side selector to the right and your right mirror will tilt down when you shift it to revers.

2. When you turn the engine off and shut down all, steering wheel goes all the way up in order to make exit and entrance easier. You can turn that feature off by pressing button next to the steering wheel position adjuster, but you can't program it differently.

Just curious, what would you want to do if it is possible?

Thanks Misha. I'm assuming the 'R' in mishar is last initial?

The right side mirror tip works great.

If it were possible, I'd like to mimic the behavior of late 90s GM models, that would retract the steering wheel and raise the seat and back it out to make it easier to exit and enter the vehicle. After putting the key in the ignition, the seat and steering wheel would automatically adjust to the memory settings. This was in GM vehicles in the 90s, surprised it isn't in the Audi.

So that little button next to steering wheel position adjuster is just an on/off toggle for the minute steering wheel adjustment? Seems silly, it moves barely a millimeter or two.

You are right about "R".

That with the seat is an interesting idea. May be D5 will use it.
