I do not understand your question?

Do you mean that when you set the lens to 18mm, the lens is not folded completely? That is the normal behviour. The lens that comes with the kit 18-55mm, folds completely at 35mm more or less.

My Jaguar XE mirrors stop folding close with fob, but they close if I do manually and now the passenger door is not locking. What to do??? When I use the fob all doors close except the passenger side.

Folding mirrors normally have a setting to fold automatically or to fold only manually.

The passenger door not locking is likely a broken wire or a door module issue. For that, you need an auto electrician who has access to data sheets and also has a pro grade scan tool computer. The scan tool is bi-directional and can instruct things to happen electronically and verify that they did and if they didn't why?

Is there a way for your mirrors to auto tilt in when auto is shutting off

Auto folding mirrors are only available on 'top of the line' autos and trucks. If you can find the auto folding mirrors at a parts store or junk yard you might be able to retro fit your existing ones. The mount is altogether different than your present ones so they must be from an equivalent make and model like yours. Good luck.

Why would my Auto focus mirror not folding up completely.

The mirror is designed to fully swing from top to bottom with out any interference unless something was jammed inside. If you are shooting with the lens off and watching the mirror only partially open something is jammed and needs repair. To test this put the camera in Manual mode ( M on the mode selector dial) Set the shutter speed to 1/4 of a second and press the shutter button. Having a slow shutter will allow you to see if it is fully opening and closing.
If you are making this assumption based on seeing images that have only a portion of the frame exposed, then the most likely scenario is you are taking pictures with the flash on at a shutter speed greater than 1/250 of a second. This causes the flash to fire before the shutter is fully open and therefore only part of the frame is exposed. Google "Shutter Sync Speed".
Good Luck

HOW CAN I FIX

First thing to check is the control switch. The next thing is the wiring to the door and the last thing would be the mirror itself.

Since some features work on both mirrors sounds like a faulty control panel.

I want to replace the mirrors on my 2008 ford focus so they can fold. can i buy those mirrors

The SVT has the folding mirrors. The size of the mirror itself is the same, you'd just need to check the connector and make sure it's the same. The parts department should know if they are the same.

2003 gmc mirrors do not fold in

The power mirrors are controlled by a module (computer) DDM - drivers door module an the PDM - passenger door module .
Folding Mirror System
Folding Mirror System Controls
The folding mirror system requires signals from 2 separate switches. The mirror select switch must be in the neutral/fold position and the mirror direction switch must be activated to the left/extend or right/retract positions. Both switches are integrated into the DDM and provide direct signals.
Folding Mirror System Operation
Upon receipt of the required switch inputs the DDM will supply battery voltage and ground to the mirror fold motor control circuits to perform the requested extend or retract function. The DDM will also send a class 2 message to the PDM indicating the requested function. The PDM will supply battery voltage and ground to the mirror fold motor control circuits to perform the requested extend or retract function.

Power Mirror System
Power Mirror System Components
The power mirror system consists of the following components:
ā€¢ The driver door module--Class 2 module with integrated switches and requires programming when replaced
ā€¢ The passenger door module--Class 2 module with integrated switches, requires programming when replaced and also contains the RFA receiver
ā€¢ The power mirror direction switch--Integrated into DDM and is a 4-position momentary switch that provides a signal input to the DDM for up, down, left/extend and right/retract with a mirror switch activation
ā€¢ The mirror select switch--Integrated into DDM and is a 3-position switch that allows the operator to select the left or right mirror and also a neutral/fold position
ā€¢ The left outside power mirror--Contains both the vertical and horizontal mirror motors and is serviced as a complete mirror assembly
ā€¢ The right outside power mirror--Contains both the vertical and horizontal mirror motors and is serviced as a complete mirror assembly
ā€¢ The body control module--Class 2 module that requires programming when replaced, serves as the power mode master and is the main message handler
ā€¢ The DDM 10A fuse--Located in the I/P fuse block and is hot at all times
ā€¢ The PDM 10A fuse--Located in the I/P fuse block and is hot at all times
ā€¢ The memory switch, if equipped with memory mirrors--Supplied power by the DDM and provides a voltage signal to the DDM upon a switch activation
ā€¢ The horizontal and vertical position sensors, if equipped with memory mirrors--Supplied a 5-volt and low reference by the DDM/PDM and provide a variable voltage signal to the DDM/PDM that is proportional to mirror position
ā€¢ The park neutral position switch, if equipped with memory mirrors--Provides transmission gear selection information to the PCM and is used for memory recall and mirror tilt in reverse functions
ā€¢ The powertrain control module, if equipped with memory mirrors--Class 2 module that requires programming when replaced and provides Class 2 message indicating transmission gear selection
ā€¢ The driver information center (DIC), if equipped with memory mirrors--Part of the instrument cluster which is a Class 2 module that requires programming when replaced and is used to personalize the memory recall and mirror tilt in reverse functions
ā€¢ Fold motor in each of the outside mirrors, if equipped with power fold mirrors--Provides extend and retract movements of the mirror and is serviced as a complete mirror assembly
Each of the outside power mirrors contains 2 reversible motors to provide horizontal and vertical movement of the mirror glass. The vertical motor operates the up and down directions and the horizontal motor operates the left and right directions. If equipped with power folding mirrors, each outside power mirror will contain a reversible fold motor to operate the extend and retract functions. Each of the mirror motors are circuit breaker protected.
DTC B1722
The driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) switch the mirror fold motor control circuits to battery voltage and ground in response to mirror extend or retract command.

Not taking a complete picture

Broken focus mirror pin. Gently lift mirror and see if the tiny focus mirror behind folds flat to the bigger mirror. If not then the pin needs replacing. Problem is that it takes some time and most of the camera needs to be disassembled to get to it inside.
