Little Annoying

[Paul]

Hoping someone can point out an easy solution;

When I park in town, I close and lock the car, keep the lock button held down for a few seconds to fold the mirrors. No problems so far.

Get back into the car and drive off but the sun-roof blind has crept forward a few inches over the rear section, presumably having started it's close sequence when the lock button was held down to fold the mirrors in.

Can I fold the mirrors in (using the key) without starting the blind close sequence or is it just one of those things?

Paul, I seem to recall this being a topic on the forum some time ago, sorry can't be more specific. You could blame your wife for the hassle, as she paid for the roof

Only way to avoid it is to have the blind fully closed before you get out of the car!

It is crazy - the wing mirrors should fold automatically and this would eliminate this glitch

I rarely fold the mirrors when parking so this would annoy me

Simple answer: This is how it works and you can do nothing about it. And I agree it is annoying that the blind creep up closer and closer for each time. I've been annoyed with the same issue.

Only way this can be fixed is if Porsche decide to change how it works in any upcoming PCM release. Adding the auto-fold feature like they have in all Audis.

I loved the auto fold on my Audi and Golf. Easy way to visually confirm the car has locked ok.

I think I am going to find that very annoying. My mercedes has it and I find it very useful.

Does the Macan have a button on the drivers side to fold the mirrors whilst in the car?. I have to do that to get my mercedes in the garage and it will be the only way I can get the Macan in.

Exactly my experience and looked everywhere for a fix but not possible. I have giving up long pressing the key button as my blind is always opened and want to keep it this way. I now always push the button that fold the mirror every time I park. Just a habit to get used to.

Edit: also when you push that folding mirror button, you have to do it while the car still on or key on position 0/1 because if you take keys off, after 30 sec or so you cannot fold the mirror manually, another small nuisance...
