Default Outside mirror needs to change to decaf!

I'm having a problem with my drivers outside mirror on my '97 X300. It sometimes has a little shake! I can move it (using the mirror control)towards the car, and it seems to help a little. Is there an adjustment that can be made to it? The controls in the door panel work fine. It's just a little hard to see through. Any help out there, guys? Thanks-in-advance!

Default Mirror

I Have the same problem..it just recently started too. My passenger mirror doesn't shake at all only driver. It only shakes when the car is in reverse or drive gear but normal in park with engine ignited.

I have a friend who is a MASTER TECH @ the dealer and was told the following: "Unfortunately, it sounds like one of the motor links to your mirror glass has broken. There are two separate motors in the motor pack for each mirror. Each has a link, sort of like a ladder that that motors in and out to position the mirror. When one of these break the result is usually a mirror that wiggles. " He has gone on vacation and will verify this after he comes back....... I'll keep you informed.
