2014 Continental GT V8S

Hello all, new to the site and new Bentley owner here!

I have a few teething questions if I may:
1) how do you display fuel range on the onboard computer? Can't figure it out!
2) passenger seat massage function seems faulty - it does a very weak cycle that lasts about 10 seconds then stops. Is this a known issue? Seat tilt seems a bit unruly too =
3) the wing mirror folding function is a bit clunky, they often don't unfold immediately when I turn the **** to the right. I also turned on the mirror dipping in reverse feature, and it seems the mirror sometimes doesn't tilt back up. Again is this a case of "they all do that Sir!"?

Everything else seems to work fine, touch wood!
Wish I could get a bit more front end bite and direct steering, other than that the car is great!

The mirrors stick sometimes folding and opening. My driver's side got stuck in the closed position. A Bentley repair tech
told me to force it open and it's been fine since. He said they sometimes get stuck. To replace the mechanism requires
taking off the inner door panel and I'm not sure what you would replace anyway since the motor is working. It's some kind
of mechanical issue, an annoyance but not more than that.

Can't help you with the other stuff. The car is over engineered and lots of convenience things seems to go wrong.

Thank you T!

Regarding the fuel range/fuel left question - is this something you've ever been able to display on the trip computer?

yeah you scroll the chrome wheel on the right side of the steering wheel and there are a number of screens with various fuel info

Thanks, still can't find any range info on the trip computer!
Beginning to think there isn't any, which is weird in a car like that!
