Wing Mirror Problems

Has anyone experienced their electric mirrors juddering when they open? My drivers side has just started too and i think it's slowing down too!! Big Cry Gone - TD4 XS Auto, Sumatra Black, Mud flaps and side strips, clear indicators, private plate, privacy glass

mine did it last winter, and started to do it again this year

But after my service last week they don't, so i presume the garage tech got out his trusty silicone spray Thumbs Up Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Thanks mate. I was thinking of using the spray I have, as it is presumably a lubrication problem. I'm just concerned they're gonna pack up as they did on my old car. Creates a few issues when driving with no mirrors!! I take it yours kept going??

I had this when I first got the FL2. They tried silicone spray but ended up "resetting" the wing mirrors.
