Was this as simple as a drain and fill, turn the wheel back and forth to burp it? My car is probably ready for this at 140k.

I popped my mirror glass off and cleaned the motor contacts, slapped some dielectric grease on there. Hoping this fixes my mirror with a mind of its own problem every time I use comfort access to open the car.
Correct, I drained it filled 3 times. Steering wheel feels much smoother and no vibration like I used to get a time when turning. Brake flush is still ij the forecast.

In regards to your mirror you probably due for a new one. I replaced mine I think twice already. Once the pin inside the mirror starts to fail, this is what happens. You can code out the confort access mirrors folding feature if you need to.
