Do both of your mirrors fold out at the same speed or is one noticeably slower than the other?

:D You know how it is when you get a new toy. :D

I was really just wondering if it was normal or if something might have happened to mine before delivery. I noticed it said in the manual not to fold the mirrors by hand (like most people at dealers and car washes tend to do) if you have to power mirrors. I though someone might have done that and damaged them.

I know exactly ;) Noticed it too. My passenger side mirror always outruns the one on the driver side by maybe half a second.

at what speed do the mirrors fold in? is the fold in at a certain speed an option in MMI?

They fold in when you lock the car or flip the switch on the door.

LOL, same here, the passenger side is def the victor in this race. I saw this thread before I got my car so its always been in the back of my mind, and when I was locking it last night for the first time in my garage, I said to myself "Well I be dammed, they do fold in a different times".
