How to Adjust Audi Rearview Mirrors?

The rearview mirror adjustment switch is located on the left door handle of the driver's seat. There is a small round knob; turn it to the left side, then move it up, down, left, or right to adjust the left rearview mirror's field of view. Turn it to the right side and move it accordingly to adjust the right rearview mirror's field of view. The steps for adjusting Audi rearview mirrors are as follows: 1. Adjust the left rearview mirror by positioning the horizon at the center 1/2 of the mirror, with 1/4 of the car body visible in the mirror. If too little of the car body is visible, you won't see vehicles close to the rear. If too much is visible, it may be difficult to see vehicles already partially parallel. Adjust the right rearview mirror differently from the left one because the driver's blind spot is larger on the right side. 2. Position the horizon at 2/3 of the right rearview mirror, with 1/4 of the car body visible. When adjusting the center rearview mirror, align it parallel to the horizon, placing the horizon at the center 1/2 of the mirror. Tilt the mirror slightly toward the driver to ensure a clear view of vehicles directly behind. Before adjusting the mirrors, it's best to adjust your seating position first.

I've been driving an Audi for several years, and adjusting the mirrors requires a calm approach. Sit in the driver's seat and locate the small control panel on the door armrest, which usually has a switch to select the left or right mirror. Then use the directional buttons to move the mirror up, down, left, or right. The goal is to see a small part of the car body and the road behind, which helps avoid blind spots. Remember not to adjust the mirrors while driving—find a safe place to park and do it to avoid distractions. Audi models typically have a memory function; once you set the mirror position, save it, and it will automatically restore when using the key. The mirrors fold automatically when you lock the car for protection. During regular maintenance, check that the switches aren't clogged with dust to prevent adjustment issues. Different models like the A4 or Q7 may have slight variations, but the overall process is similar. Properly adjusted mirrors can improve visibility for nighttime driving.

When I first drove an Audi, I messed up the rearview mirror adjustments. Now I’ve learned to always park the car properly before fiddling with it. Simply put, there’s a control panel with arrows near the window inside the driver’s door—toggle it left or right for the corresponding mirror, then twist or press buttons to adjust the position. The key is to ensure the mirror shows your rear door corner and distant vehicles, maximizing side visibility. For safety, always check for blind spots after adjustment. Audi’s auto-folding feature is especially handy in rain—don’t damage the button. Long-term care includes dust and moisture protection to extend its lifespan. New drivers should ask mechanics to inspect this part during routine maintenance.

Audi's mirror adjustment is typically controlled via the door panel controls. After plugging in, use the directional keys to fine-tune the left and right mirrors to avoid operating while driving. Adjust them after parking to ensure the view displays part of the vehicle body and the rear end of the road. Memory settings store preferences for convenience, and the folding function automatically retracts when locking the car, ensuring safety and reducing hassle. Different Audi models may vary in design, but the basic usage remains unaffected.
