Hi folks. My Superb Estate L&K (2013) has various problems, including a creaking sunroof (have tried everything. Drives me nuts), but last winter the nearside wing mirror stopped heating up. It’s auto dimming and I just can’t find them on eBay etc. Does anyone know where I can get one from - or - has anyone found that by taking the mirror off and cleaning up the contacts, the heater has worked again? Any advice would be appreciated. Stay safe.

The wiring loom to the door is notorious for breaking after the door opens and closes a lot.

 

Have a look in the rubber loom cover thingy and see if you can see any broken wires.  Some people have managed to fix it in situ without replacing the whole loom.

You can certainly try taking off the glass and cleaning the contacts to see if it fixes matters. I know when my mirror stopped heating up I just had to replace the glass, but my mirrors aren't auto-dimming.
