Default Wing mirrors folding slowly/losing power over time

Hi folks,

the wing mirrors on my 07 IS350 (172,000kms) are starting to fold very slowly, one folds much slower than the other. The motor also sounds quite loud. Is there any way to fix it or tighten anything up?

Cheers

For all the time put into "tightening" the motor, it'll be more cost effective to replace the side mirror folding motor.
