This time: mirror fix for Skoda Yeti

The only other piece of maintenance I’ve had to carry out was to the wobbly passenger-side door mirror. This is quite a common issue with heated mirrors, because the constant heating up and cooling down has an adverse effect on the adhesive that attaches the mirror glass to the motorised plastic mount inside the mirror housing. You may have encountered a similar issue during last month’s icy blast (we’re due another one next week 🥶).

It’s best to fix it sooner rather than later, because not only is it difficult to see anything behind using a trembling mirror, but it will also get to the stage where the glass will simply fall off.
