Side mirror
 

if you drive with the side mirror folded in they will open automatically once your speed is 35-40 MPH.

Yes. I believe it's 10-15 km/hr.

Tried this today and it unfolded just as it hit 40km/hr

You must have hit 40 km/h pretty quickly !!!! :thumbup:

Thanks, tried it today and it works, would never have known and had the car for 6 months.:thumbup:

i dont think its a good idea because we usually fold the mirrors when we are in a parking so we end up opening them up when we are pulling out from a parking ..

i tried it today too and it opened when i hit 40 km/hr :-)

Does this work on all models?

be more specific ? all models of the x5 or all models of BMW

Sorry about that! 02-03 4.4I X5.

uhm i cant help you with that since this is my 1st BMW

:rolleyes:

Bushman2, I would imagine that it is a new feature for the E70 simply because it hasn't been noted before. This isn't to say you couldn't jump in your X right now and prove me wrong.

Yeah, pretty fast! Come on mirrors open!

It works for E70's with the power side mirror option... You will also be unable to fold the mirrors closed at speeds in excess of 40km/hr... makes sense..don't think you can squeeze through that gap by folding your mirrors at top speed :rofl:
