- BMW E84 X1 and F25 X3 folding mirrors problem fix.
If you have a problem with the folding function of the mirrors on your BMW X1 or X3, this video may help you fix it.
I found an easy way to disassemble the hinge pin.
This video shows how to replace a bad folding mechanism motor.
Sometimes the problem is not in the motor.
Sometimes the gears fail, but in most of the cases it's a bad motor.

Excellent video! The bearing extractor tool saved the day for me! I didn't have the means to grind down the ends of the brackets so I ended up applying more compression to the spring to gain more space. Another key to easily fixing this is where to place the brackets so that they don't interfere with the mechanism once you turn it clockwise because of the additional height they add. I took a screenshot of my placement for posterity, in case anyone is interested in taking a look. My aftermarket pin didn't have much markings, so I went and drew lines that aligned to each of the four positions that the pin can fit inside, relative to the body of the mirror, so no matter how I inserted the pin, I was always able to tell if it was correctly aligned or not. I also used a philips bolt and a simple washer on top so I didn't have the need to drill on it since the head already provided the necessary point of support for the extractor to be placed upon. Many thanks again for your great video, it helped me enormously to fix my mirrors!
Thank you very much!!! I solved the same problem. Before watching this video I was resigned to keep it not functioning. Great.
Great video, if you had a camera mount you’d be dangerous 👍🏼😊👍🏼
Super.
This video is the detail I have been looking for. Thanks for doing the "heavy lifting".
Edit - 04/20/2024 - got it done! And you're video was the key. It went as smoothly as you detailed. Thanks again!
Good work. Thanks!
Thank you ! 🙏
Video is great. I hope I can find someone here in Sydney to put it back together for me as I am struggling.
Good video, thanks! Where to get new gears if they've been found worn out?
Same seller in Aliexpress. AZGIANT sells gears and motors.
Is this the same process for the g30 5 series need to replace lower housing trim which cracked
I don't know to be honest. It could be the same. Try it.
