Floppy Wing Mirror

Post by alex1985blue » Sat Apr 30, 2011 11:17 am

Hey All,

I was wondering if anyone has had this, the passenger wing mirror on my car has gone all floppy to the point that if you push the wing mirror in or out, there is no resistance at all.

Has anyone experienced this?

The wing mirrors are power folding as well.

Cheers

Hey Paul,

I have tried that but the wing mirror just makes a clicking noise when you press the button and doesnt move. The drivers one folds in then then folds back out again.

Thoughts?
