Part of my the door handle has come loose, and for the life of me, I can't get it back in flush.

It goes in, then the top of it pops out, it is as annoying as hell.

I thought it may be slightly damaged, so I ordered a new one from Skoda (part number 5e0 867 198) for £13, but the new one does the same.

I don't really want to use a cable tie to hold it down, but is there any other advice?
Is there anyone that's had the door cards off, that can advise please?

 

Thanks.

 

I would look at the back of the handle to see if any trim clips are either warped or damaged.

Hi Noms

I know this is an old post, but wondered if you got to the bottom of it?

I’m finding the same thing.

Thanks

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the resurrection.

I ended up using some black sealant which is still holding it in place 2 years later; only a small amount, and wiped through so there's no evidence on the outside.

Just a small amount though, as don't want it to be stuck for good!
