    It seems to be the bit in the middle of the door, i think its the check strap. I might take the door card off but dont like removing panels incase i break anything and introduce rattles
    Thanks

    You'll be fine taking the doorcards off, but it may be wise having some spare plastic clips. Once you've done one, it seems easy but the clips can sometimes be weak.

    This is the link for the p1 V70 clips, but I don't know if the p2's are the same?

    You don't need to take the door card off to access/remove the door check strap.
