This is not a probability of success.

I removed the glass, cleaned up both surfaces and used some strips of double sided tape (the type with a thin layer of foam in the middle like the pads for fixing rear view mirrors) been fine ever since.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

my 996 04 has developed a problem with the off side door mirror. the glass wobbles whilst driving. I have tried pressing the glass which helped for a while, but know the problem has returned. Any help ideas how to cure it.

POST 2Original post

Mine did the same a couple of years ago, the plastic mount that fixes the glass to the motor had unbonded. I removed the glass, cleaned up both surfaces and used some strips of double sided tape (the type with a thin layer of foam in the middle like the pads for fixing rear view mirrors) been fine ever since.
