Parking aid mirror position

I have a 2005 E320 CDI. It has a little problem with the passenger mirror parking aid. It goes into the desired position when the car is in reverse but whenever I go back to drive 8 out of 10 times it will go back to the wrong position either too low or too high (most of the time too low) and I always have to adjust the mirror back. Even when I hold down my memory button it still doesn't return to the desired position. It's like it's out of sync.

Any ideas?

Some peoples mirrors are just crappy like that. Probably a weak/bad mirror motor.
