Folding rear view mirror

[Sam617]

My folding rear view mirror is making noise when folding in and out. It sounds like a spring inside about to brake. Is there a way to lube the internal parts??

Thanks, Sam

Did you get the extra special X5 with the folding rear view mirror? I wish I had that

If you mean the side mirrors, then take the cap off and you should be able to access the folding motor mechanism
