In the manual it say to fold the side view mirrors in when parking in narrow spots, but I can't find a place where it tells you how to do this.

On the newer S5's, the folding in the mirror housings is manually done, whereas the earlier model years allowed you to fold them in by turning the mirror adjustment **** to a set detent. I can't speak for the **** in the earlier S5's, but if I turned the **** in my 2004 A4 to the bottom detent, the mirror housings will fold in.

My 2006 A4 had power folding mirrors, but my 2009 A4 and 2011 S5 do not.
I remember hearing that it was discontinued to cut costs for the US market (probably due to our weak currency). I think the Euro market still has them possibly.
