My right side steering wheel tiptronic button is real loose but does not pull off to replace is there a clip or something holding it on? I see part is available from our host so that is done.
Thanks

The button itself snaps down onto the switch assembly.
If you gently lift the inside edge, the barrel will snap out of the switch fingers
Then you can lift the button out. It has a long tab on the bottom which is what actuates the switch.
You can see in this last pic the two screws which holds the switch into the steering wheel. I bought a junk wheel to recover with suede. One of the buttons was loose because one of the little switch fingers was broken. I built it back up with some JBWeld and then drilled a new hole for the button barrel. It is nice and tight again. If you want a picture of the repaired switch, let me know.
Yep, two T27 screws that are accessed from the back of the steering wheel. Pelican Parts has a good DIY on steering wheel removal that has instructions for removing the air bag.
