DS3 right side wing mirror fold problem

Unread post by joaocpereira »

Hello, my right rearview mirror sometimes doesn’t close like. I’ve already lubricated and cleaned, but it continues. You can hear the engine gearing but it won’t. After a few attempts it ends up closing. The same happens when I opened.

Possible to be this the problem? Plastic gear broken? If yes, what is the part number?

Apart from replacement mirror glass, outer cover and temperature sender I don't think that you can buy any repair parts for the door mirrors.
