How do I access the folding mechanism on my wing mirror

Folding mirrors normally have a setting to fold automatically or to fold only manually.

The passenger door not locking is likely a broken wire or a door module issue. For that, you need an auto electrician who has access to data sheets and also has a pro grade scan tool computer. The scan tool is bi-directional and can instruct things to happen electronically and verify that they did and if they didn't why?

Unclip your inside trim right behind the mirror mounting. You should be able to find the screws attaching the mirror.

probably just rusty try spraying releasing fluid in it move the mirror as the button is being pressed or the motor and gearing is going

I have a useful link for a walk-through for you here, it will help you diagnose and fix the problem.

Tie a piece of string to the outside of your tow mirror. Run the string to the hood hinge on that side. Keep it from collapsing.

There is a special paste you can get from any Mercedes dealer to apply to the mirror folding mechanism. This is a well known problem that Mercedes issued a service bulletin about. Just describe the problem to any dealer and ask them if they could get you the appropriate paste for you.

Grab the passenger mirror with both hands. Fold the mirror all the way forward, all the way back and then back to the home position. Sometimes the mirror will get off track if it has been bumped or moved out of place manually.

Has it ocurred to you that your wing mirrors are not the electrically folding type, most are not. The switch on the drivers arm rest for adjusting the mirrrors will have a separate position for folding if yours fold. The resistance to fold by hand is very stiff as you have to overcome the spring tension, even when folded by hand they do not fold as flat as you might think.
I purchased a 2006 Golf 5 GT Tdi last year it had £5000 worth of factory fitted options but did not have electrically folding door mirrors - hope this helps.

had to install a driver side non folding mirror, fairly simply to say the least. There's a cover on the interior of the door, near the window, remove the cover, remove the 3 screws, need i believe a 10mm socket. If a power window, unhook the circuit. Replace new mirror.
