Hi, I've got two problems, both on facelift w211
First is mine, the mirror no longer folds either with key or with button. I've disabled the auto fold and left them out, but want to restore this function. I've taken apart as much as I can and cleaned/WD40 it, but no joy. MB have quoted £288 for a mirror assembly which to be honest I'm tempted to go with (unless one turns up on ebay) but how do I get the old one off? when stripping down I couldn't work out how to get it off the door.
Second is my dads, he carelessly clipped his on a post when reversing and bent it way too far the other way - he's now got the 'bulb out' error, but as it was a slow speed thing rather than smacking it at speed, would you think it's more likely to be a wire pulled too tight/snapped?
Cheers guys and girls.
