also ive tried a switch that had the auto feature on it and it didnt work and as a consequence am having difficulty finding a switch with the auto folding feature on it that doesnt have the automatic window feature on aswell as it doesnt seem to work in my car unless the switch is simply broken i dont know

You have to manually turn the switch to fold / unfold them.
Auto folding needs a late 04 onwards multiplexed BSI unit, software update & BSI configuration tweak.
If your preplexed then your gonna need relays to get auto folding.

Depends on the age of the BSI unit, early ones dont even have the option in the configuration set up.

Lee activated the auto fold in the BSI on my 53 plate. Just need to save up for the mirrors now.
