Yo guys, will urs F30's side mirror flip/ turn down and show the lower of the ground/ rear tyre part while u reversing?Today i just noticed that the side mirror of my F30 only flip/ turn down on passenger side, the driver side remain the same angle while im reversing. And when i turn the side mirror adjust button to the left, both of the side mirrors remain same angle and doesnt flip/ turn down to show the lower ground.Is that a norm?
 
Its a very handy feature for parallel parking. Its painful to have scratched your rims or side skirt right? hehehe....

You can disable it. Just move the side view mirror selector to the opposite side, and turn it back on when you need to.

I do find however with the F30, the mirror turns down quite a bit, meaning the angle is such that I see the road curb very well but not much else. I found with the E90, the angle was better, I could see a little of the rear and also the curb. Has anyone else also noticed this ?

Yes, I was told F10 and F30 have better PDC system LOL!!!
 
Better PDC system: open door and lean out to look behind when reversing.

Best PDC system: ask wife to get out and guide you :D

No man .... bad idea.... you will most probably bang into something and they will not accept it was due to their lousy signals...
