Question Sun Visor Squeak

So my Driverside visor developed a squeak when I pull it down and up, has anyone find a fix for this beside a new visor? It functions fine but the noise is annoying and not what I expected from a MBZ.

Anyone?

Thanks for the post OptimusPrime M1.

Nope, that's a no go. It will at least for me work for about a week then rear it's ugly head. :-(

Well, it appears to be more common of a problem then I thought, how embarrassing:

Well, I found this video:


I will try it, I have the 3n1 with assembly lube added to it. Basically, remove visor, drip the lubricant down the shaft, let it sit for an hour or two and work it in. Hmmm, will post an update shortly.
