how do you tighten the door handle to a2005 Aveo
It is a Lever handle (long instead of a knob) that has not a lock.
Remove the door panel and you can see two nuts holding the door handle. Just tighten them.
usually if you open the door, look in the door edge under the rubber seal right behind the handle you will see a screw, try to tighten it..
Hold door handle (opening lever) as if you're opening the door and then push lock lever to lock
with a screw driver
Second or third cant remember which.
The door handle is in the opposite area to the hinge to creat a lever. If the door handle were on the same stile as the hinge it would require huge amounts of enery to pull the door open
The outside door handle on the driver's side is loose on the right side not the left. I found the screw for the out side left after taking the door panel off but could not find how to tighten the outside right of the handle. How is it connected ?
The problem is that the inside door handle is broken. Although the inside door handle needs replacement you can still open the door by pulling on the lock lever above the handle.
I believe the handle is one whole assy handle holder and lever. remove door panel and assy should rivet/bolt to door
Take inner door panel off and the plastic deflector paper and there are 2 10 millimeter bolts that hold the handle on, tighten the bolts and your all set.
