on my 2010 XS Is there any way to turn off the folding mirrors?

Over the winter with all the snow and ice wedged by them they struggle to open and put strain on the motors

I believe it is a dealer (or somebody with an IIDTool) configurable option only.

Ah ok. Looks like I will have to run the kettle over them!

If I remember correctly, you can fold them out manually from locked and they’ll stay out. When you want to go back to normal, fold them in manually and then unlock the car. Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto
Evoque SD4 Dynamic Lux Auto
Present: Audi A3 S Line.

Always fold my mirrors fully open and back again manually whilst the car is defrosting. 
Hung like Einstein, smart as a horse.

^^^^^^^^^^ Looks like I’d didn’t quite remember correctly! That was what I was thinking of.

Great thanks!
