VCDS re-programme 2016 T6 Highline with factory folding morrors

[Darren Blanche]

Does anyone know of someone who can re-programme my ecu with VCDS ro enable the mirrors to be able to fold when lock the van. Its been a bugbear of mine since 2016! as constantly manually turn knob before leaving van, although not a huge problem, would be nice to be able to use the mirrors when getting out of vn on a busy road and then fold thm in with the key when locking.
based in either Gloucestershire area or NW London.

Many thanks

Darren

If you do a long press when locking the van the mirrors will fold. If you find someone with VCDS local they can code so the mirrors fold with a short press.

My 2016 van wouldn't fold on the key until I coded it in. That was with comfort close already on the windows.
I'd be interested to know how to fold in the mirrors with a short/one shot press.

Darren, you don't specify how you use your van, but I wouldn't recommend folding/unfolding on lock/unlock for a camper.

My memory might be playing tricks on me. Its 5 years since I had my T6. Edit: Just had a look, can't find any notes either.

Folding on lock is not a problem. Neither is folding on unlock - it can't be done lol.

You mean it can't be done on a T6?

Unfold on ignition on only, rather than unlock

As John says. I believe a T6.1 can be coded to unfold on unlock. I might have a search. But I’m not sure I want it to do that. Would be a pain when camping.

I think that aligns with my initial comment.

I did my T6.1, fold in in lock, fold out when Ignition on, not on unlock.

Thats how I did mine.
