My power fold mirrors that use to close when car was locked stopped working when the battery was disconnected... This should be something you can select on the menu screens.
It is selectable from the menu screens on the later models

I wonder if there is a software update for older Vantages ?
Software update allows dealers to enable the function but doesn't let it come up on the menus for owners to select.

Neil, i think dealers can re-flash/program for the option to show (this is what they've said).. Not sure though as i'll be collecting the car this week.

I've had a similar issue...

Not on early ones. Later models do show it as a menu option. What model year are you getting?

2010. Radio unit has been swapped with an 09 model and the mirror settings disappeared.

Dealer however, said that they can put it back on!

Not sure about the ability to activate the powerfold mirrors from the menu without them having been activated at the dealership first.

Sure you're not confusing it with the ability to 'dip the passenger wing mirror when reversing' option ? smile

I had this happen a while back. There were no options to select on the DB9. If I recall I folded the mirrors manually pressing both left and right mirror buttons together and locked the car. When I unlocked and put the key in the mirrors unfolded and then locking they folded. If that doesn't work then try unfolding them manually then locking the car.

I know one of the combinations work as they now fold. Sorry to be vague but I wasn't taking notes.
