    Default VS Door handle Rattles

    I have noticed over the last few months there has been an annoying rattle/vibration in the doors of my VS ute which i believe to be the door handles (L/H door is worse then the R/H) whenever the car goes over 60k's... I wedged a piece of rubber under one of the clips on the inside of the door handle where the door handle clips onto the door skin. This reduced it a bit but its still there. Has anyone had this problem or anything like it ?

    My left hand door handle started doing this too so I pulled the little cover thing off, and one of the two screws inside had fallen out and was rattling around in the bottom of the handle.

    I'm yet to fix this as the screw won't stay in, the hole is threaded But yes, this could be your problem.

    I was actually assuming you meant the bits on the door you grab on to pull it closed, didn't really think you may have been talking about the actual door handles >.<

    But if it is those grabby things, you just pry the little cover off with a flat head screw driver, it just pops out. My mistake if you were actually talking about the handles that open the door, I always get confused with the two different parts when people talk about them.
