Retract Mirrors not staying put

[Bunyan]

Hey All,

I just got a new to me X5 '06 and wonder if there's a faulty regulator or something on my retract mirrors. When I press the button to retract them they fold in but don't stay. All they do is retract and flip right back.

Any clue as to what might be the problem?

Thanks

I have a similar problem, my drivers side sounds like its dead (slow to come in) I think dealer should cover this, anybody confirm

Dealer fixed mine while still under 4/50 warranty. Same exact problem.
