leon263 0 Posted February 20, 2015 Check the trailing edge of the door and you should see a cross head screw just above the door latch mechanism. Make sure that it is tight, it locks the handle into place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted February 20, 2015 Its the face with the latch on that shuts onto the pin sticking out of the car body. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leon263 0 Posted February 21, 2015 Check out the photo below. You need to tighten the black screw which is just above and to the left of the door latch on the back of the door. It passes through the door and screws into the door handle. If it is loose or missing, the handle will be loose. If you need to tighten the one on the drivers door you will find that it has a left hand thread and needs to be turned anti-clockwise to tighten it.
