Touran retractable mirrors

    Hello

    I was wondering could anyone help me regarding a VW Touran?

    I would love if my car mirrors would retract automatically but I do not have the option on my central cluster

    Is there any way to get my mirrors to retract automatically, when I turn off my car?

    You can get it coded in with vcds or similar, I'm not aware of a way using just the car menus

    Hold the lock button a second or two and they’ll fold in. They can be coded to fold without having to hold the button too but you’ll need VCDS or the like.

    thanks, but I have tried the lock button thing but didn't work

    Where could I get someone with this VCDS thing to do it?

    you wouldn't happen to know how much this would cost?

    Your car probably didn’t have the ability to do so then.

    There's an assumption made that all cars come with the motor included but just disabled in software.

    I would high doubt that VW included motors in vehicles that weren't specced with the feature, it's just too expensive.

    there is a button inside the car that does it, so the motor is on the mirrors

    I just want to to happen automatically when I lock the car as I never remember to do it manually

    I have a Leon and I made them fold automatically with a cheap ODB scanner and an app called carista.
