[QUOTE="desbimmer, post: 629449, member: 16214"] had the same issue on my left side mirror when I whacked into a stooopid Honda driver driving his car like his grandfathers road in Uptown a few months back. Did not care much but just folded it back manually hoping it would be nothing. I don't really fold my mirrors so did not think much of it UNTIL i found out that the side mirror tends to 'adjust' itself whenever I start the car. Since it was a pain in a ass, I tried living with it a few weeks. I did the same 'popping' thinghi procedure as well and tried the above but did not work. Prepared to change my side mirrors, I decided a 'rougher' approach. I started 'whacking' my side mirror into place forcefully (hoping to mimic the accidental brush I had with the other car) BUT on the other direction instead....by luck and much prayer, my side mirror adjusted well after that and is working like normal again :)....
