    interesting! I was wondering how this odd behaviour was possible, was trying to think how! thanks
    I'm the only one who drives my car so rarely have to adjust it, infact the only times i do adjust it is when i'm sitting at the lights with a car with poorly adjusted headlights blinding me, and I adjust my mirror to reflect the light back to the car behind me :p
    When i fixed my right mirror back before taking off, I was surprised to see my left mirror completely messed up.
    (obviously the sync plays up when you go to the extremeties)

    Makes it quicker to adjust the mirrors when the car is shared by several drivers.

    But doesn't the Holden badge make it superior to everything?

    The window clip problem has been well documented, VW should have used metal instead of plastic. Mirrors moving together part of the design, quite clever. You can adjust Left first then Right to get preferred views. Dipstick breaking after 10 years, not too shabby I think, could be worse
