can i just put it out there - should the wing mirrors open and close equal distances on both sides - i’m
sure the passenger side doesn’t open as far as it should but it could be that it shouldn’t as you can move it manually and when it closes again it Clunks - any help or advice appreciated - picked the car up yesterday so i don’t if it’s just me being overly picky

The passenger mirror doesn’t move the same amount/distance. It doesn’t have to. In fact the mirrors are set at different angles, ie, not symmetrical. I think this is common to a lot of vehicles.

Your XC40 has wing mirrors? Must be a special 1970s edition 😀
