My Side View make a squeaky noise when unfolding,anyone with a similar issue, no big deal but I'm afraid it might get worst.

Maybe needs a little lithium grease or something to lube the pivot point.

This is an old problem reported in the past. It is usually caused by dirt and sand getting in the mirror. Clean them with some compressed air. It should help.

Mirror replacement
When the Canadian '09s start coming with the new mirrors, I am going to drive up to Vancouver BC to check on prices since I want to get rid of the elephant ear mirrors but want to retain the folding feature.
Provided that the new mirrors can be mounted on the old base.
Those who don't like the new version may refrain from mentioning it, again.

Folding Hoser mirrors or not?
<<Is it for sure that the new mirrors in Canada wont have the folding option?>>
You just posted "not in Canada" is response to comments about the US '09s losing folding mirrors so why are you now questioning your own statement?

I had that problem with the passenger side mirror. Took it to the dealer and they blamed it on a factory fault. They fitted a new mirror and haven't had the problem since. :-) As for the new mirrors, the C-Class is even built here in SA, and we don't even have the new mirrors yet!

simply "not-using" the folding feature is not an option which was suggested, i refuse to settle for that.... not using a feature that came with my car is stupid
