Interior handle loose

[gethinwr93]

the interior door handle ( chrome bit) has become loose

and i've had a look and the door card looks a right pain to remove.
anyone else had their handle loose? and is it a case of door card off + tighten screw?

cheers

Door card doesn't need to come off, mate. The material section that the handle is attached to comes off. I've had mine put plenty of times in both my current and previous leon. The bloody handles won't stop vibrating!

are you talking about the grab handle or the chrome handle to open the door mate?
cz my chrome handle is where the hard plastic part is :/

I'm talking about the chrome handle. The handle is set in a plastic surround with tweeter grille. That surround is then set in a material section on the door card. This material covered section is just clipped into the door card. If you start at the far end (away from the door hinge) and work your way along it comes off easily.

Had a go but it wouldn't budge! The edges were bending but it wasnt popping off lol. And I did take the 3 T30 screws out

You don't need to remove any screws

Managed to find this that I did ages ago, a few photos may help...
