Hi guys
Just been to audi to have a pre collection inspiration on my new s1 round 2 lol

And it seems like audi have fixed the electric folding mirrors issue where you were not able to fold/unfold them via the key fob When you lock and unlock the mirrors now actively work on the key now
My dealer said this is the 2nd s1 that now works with the key an is new for 2017 models

Pick up next Friday Hopefully this is it now
 
You can program it in on older cars, I don't get why they just don't put it in the MMI like on other models
 
I agree. My 66plate never did it Glad audi have fixed this
 
Agree with Dom, simply and quick fix via VCDS. It's a simple thing that makes a big difference.

Good luck with the hand over.

Is this option on a A1 black edition 17my where you lock and the mirrors fold?

Thank you. The main thing is ive seen it and the spec is correct
 
My new S1 mirrors fold on pressing the door lock.
Just need it back from Audi been there two weeks.
I'm on round three or could be four or even maybe five.
Inspect your car properly mine came from the factory with scratches, faults on the leather seats and a side skirt in a different colour to the rest of the car.

Didn't know you could get the mirrors coded to fold with the lock / unlock on the key fob !! My 66 plate doesn't do it, have to do them manually which sort of defeats the point in my opinion.

Anybody know if Audi will do this for me? ... Worth a phone call to them I guess. Where have other people had this done?

I would doubt Audi will alter any factory codes that aren't meant to be changed, but it is worth a try.

Best bet is to see if anyone local to you has VCDS and can do it in 15 minutes.
 
VCDS is easier as the coding tells you exactly what you are changing. The dealer use ODIS and won't know what they are coding unless they have the code from another S1 to copy
 
Just to confirm 17my here and the mirrors fold in on their own when you lock the car.

Hopefully all went well this time round? Looks a well speced S1 - enjoy.
 
It did thank you. Im just on edge this week with it as the last issues started a week after collecting. But it feels much better already
Really stiff tho. Alot more them the last one. So I imagine thats a good sign
