The passenger side mirror on my corsa C will adjust from side to side but will not move up and down (You can hear the motor going)
Also the mirror glass moves on its own inside the housing...it slowly drops down while I'm driving as if it is loose.
Anyone had a similar problem?? any help and advice on taking the mirror apart would be appreciated

their is ball and socket joint on the back of the mirror glass. hold the mirror on the back and push the glass til you hear it click in.
job done unless the mech or clips are broke on the back of the glass

Fixed
For the record there is 3 ball joints behind the glass. One in the center, one above it and one to the right. The top one had come out and simply needed to be pushed back in
