If his does it then they probably all do it. You have to have your mirror adjustment selector on the R(right side) position for it to do it though.

Whichever mirror the selector is pointing at, when you're in reverse.

Default Really? I'll have to check but I thought ...

(at least for the 2000 A8), only the passenger side mirror tilts down.
