Electric mirrors

Hi, my door Mirrors work ok, but the operation is a bit noisey and a bit jerky, is there any way or point in trying to get some lubrication into the mechanism ?
Thanks

Just get hold of mirror and work backwards and forwards a few times. Dealer did that as I watched and it stopped jerking. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

That works for a short time but you need to re- lubricate, I use Copper Grease, for a longer lasting fix.
