BMW E46 M3 E39 M5 Oval Rear View Mirror Auto Dim Dimming Replacement Glass Cell SYMPTOMS OF FAULT
Poor visibility through the rear view mirror, bubble in the centre of the mirror, auto dimming function has stopped working, liquid appearing behind mirror glass, a wave / fluid visible in the glass, mirror permanently dimmed, interior trim damaged / melted beneath the rear view mirror typically around the gear lever trim.

Over time this seal breaks down and the highly corrosive fluid escapes the housing which can damage the interior trim /leather within the vehicle. This is a common fault which has affected 1,000’s of M vehicles worldwide.
