Default reverse lights and mirror angle does not change

hi , and happy easter to all orthodox Audi fans (it was last Sunday )


i need an advice just to see if i am right .

i got no reverse lights and the mirrors are not moving when i am in reverse gear .

i changed the bulb lights but still no luck .

The problem is i just found out when i was doing my annual inspection so now i have an R on my sticker

From all i read in forums i have to change the multi function switch on my transmission ...

what do you all think ??

is there anything else an amateur can try to narrow down the problems .

Thank you

Need to have the right-hand mirror switch button pushed in to activate the reverse tilt down motion.

i know that . i already played with those buttons . i do think that the movement of the mirror is related to the MFS ...

but need more details from other more experienced ...

Default Check the bulb holders for corrosion...

I've had the same problem from a cracked tail light. Water gets in and the bulb sockets start to rust. I'd check there first.
