I believe what some have done is just buy the correct switch and install that in the armrest, then wire in the power. You wouldn't have the functionality of the stock system where you can operate the fold from the key fob. 1st world problems right there, lol

My guess is if you want power fold you could get it. It's nice, hold the fob down when locking and the mirrors fold in, they fold out when you hold the unlock button. There is also the arm rest button. My theory is if they make folding mirrors, and they do, you can get them.

Great info Thanks. By chance do you know the part number for the chrome mirrors?

Good info, with so many mirror threads it was getting a little confusing. That sheet was exactly what i need. My dealer didn't know anything about that document, when i asked about the mirrors, all he did was pulled out a accessory book, and said yes, we can do it, $1400. But he could not say what functions would work...LOL

 

I'll just do them myself. But i really hope someone chimes in on how to get the folding function to work on trucks that didnt come with it, even if only controlled by a new door switch

Okay, I was told that my 2016 will not fold from the key fob by my sales rep. I have a 2016 2500 LTZ. I was thinking that it would do that because I have heard that it did for the 2015s with the folding mirrors. I did look on my options but couldn't find where I could turn that option on, so figured that he was right and I was wrong. If it can do it, I would love to turn that option on. And then go to my sales rep and show him how to make it work.

If you do indeed have power fold mirrors right now, they will fold from the key for. Go to menue on your touch screen. These are screen shots from your manual, dig it out and read it... trust me... it's in there how to turn on the function. edc4949f9093b15769097d9902135104.jpgpost-84385-147564294921_thumb.pngpost-84385-147564296055_thumb.pngpost-84385-147564297263_thumb.png

Great write up thank you.

Used your part #'s and found these prices. There may be even better prices out there too.

Just noticed you have a GMC. Would everything be the same for a Chevy?

Anyone know100% for sure?

hi, yes they are the same. the part numbers above are for manual fold tow mirrors. I added power fold to my 17 Denali and love it. cargo lights come on and off with the FOB but I didnt know about the power fold with the FOB, will have to check that out!

    • I find it amusing the OP doesn’t realize this threads heading includes several engines. He should have posted in the off topic section if he wanted a more narrow focus. I really appreciate and find amusing that he actually pointed out one of my many vehicles. The Odyssey. That happens to use 0-20 oil. I love pushing his buttons. 
    • Maybe, but it seems he is the only one that has backed up data to prove what he is stating. I think he is doing this more because he enjoys it and wants to get the information out to us. He's got the knowledge and access to the proper equipment and having the funds doesn't hurt.  I would love to do what he is doing and would do it if and when I hit the Powerball.  I'm not a Tribologist by any means but love to learn what I can.   I would bet there would be doubting people out there if a completely independent lab with high quality work and highly respected in the automotive industry, put out information like this.  The world can't be pleased, one just has to take the information that they are given, do more of their own research to find actual lab data to back up what they are trying to figure/find out.  Most don't bother, they just want to believe what they first see.     I don't have the minimax but my 6.2 in my 2019 Silverado with 64k miles shows excellent UOA results with 0w-20 and for my own purposes 5w-20.  Since not much of a change using 5w. I liked the data sheet information on the SS 5w-20 and figured I would give it a try.  Still the same viscosity at 100℃.   In the end we all just do what makes us happy, life is too short to get upset over trivial social media.   On a side note, I do feel GM has dropped the ball and just cares about the bottom dollar and not quality anymore.  "Like a Rock" has been long gone.  Seems "Built Ford Tough" has as well.
    • Better than stock but that's like putting lipstick on a pig
    • Hello, my 3 month old Sierra Elevation wont recognize a trailer with electric brakes? All the lights work correctly, but no power to the brakes?   This is the factory installed brake controller. If you manually push the knob, the display shows the power % but does not light up like my 2022 silverado.   I have an appointment with the dealer, but was checking to see if anyone else has seen this issue.    Thanks, 
    • Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.
