My driver's side electric folding mirror has developed a loud squeak when it unfolds as I unlock the car
Is there an obvious place to squirt some oil or does it need some disassembly first?

This, for me too. I don't mind the minor maintenance to have the benefit of mirrors that fold when locking the doorsmr.tourette wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 10:21 am my daily does this and i just squirted some silicone lubricant in where it moves on its hinge, quietens it down for a few months
