I'm sure we discussed this subject over a year ago as I wanted exactly same thing but the only solution at that time was involving quiet a lot of wiring and few relays plus some other bits if I remember well.
BUT, this wasn't attempted so far so it's not proven as working solution

Good starting point would be a email to technical support of Ross-Tech, if possible they would know it is poss and how.

But, something tells me that this may not be possible. I've realized that recently when parked on the right hand side of the road, I folded mirrors manually, then I moaned about not having auto folding function, my mate (passenger) opened the door and almost had door taken off by the passing car.
Then it strike me - Health and Safety !?!?!?
This could be a reason why Audi decided to not provide this function because of possible cause of accident - car hitting the door, going off the road (shock) and killing someone ????
No idea, but it was close only because he couldn't see anything

I agree, left mirror could raise instantly after getting of the R gear instead of raising it manually by moving knob to neutral position
