After watching several other videos with possible fixes for this situation, stranded by the way, this worked. I didn’t have any WD-40 or other spray type lubricant but I did have a partial bottle of lawnmower engine oil in the back. I opened it up got a little on my finger, lubed the key with it and have it a try. Didn’t work, shit! In my mind I’m saying to myself this isn’t gonna work either! The man said try it 2 or 3 times. I hit a little more oil on my finger and lived the key again. Here goes nothin! Gave it a turn and the key moved like nothing was wrong. Thanks a million my friend. I’m gonna go raise a cold one to you.

Hey I just tried what you said about putting the motor oil on the key because I had no wd40. I got the oil from up under my hood, one of the oils there and wet a piece of paper towel. I had been having trouble 2 days with the ignition not cutting off completely and I was feeling terrible knowing it was gonna cost me a small fortune to fix. I did what you said (lubricated the inside of the lock as well) and it worked!!! I just wanted to say thank you so very much! You have saved me sooooo much money!!

Thanks dude! Saved me. The ignition switch started being really stiff a few days ago from now being so hard to turn, like even past the ACC part. I put a little bit of engine oil that I had since I had no WD40 or silicone spray/graphene, on paper and smeared it on the key and after a few wiggles and turns it finally loosened and is now smooth as butter!

Do not use standard WD-40! Standard WD-40 is a solvent, not a lubricant and will, in fact, remove any type of lubricant that is in the cylinder. Use a lubricant that has a silicone, graphite or Teflon base only. Something that will dry fast and won't turn the inside of your cylinder into a dirt magnet. WD-40 makes a dirt and dust resistant dry lube version that is specifically made for lock cylinders. Engine oil is probably something else you don't want to put inside your lock cylinder. Dirt and dust particles stick to engine oil like glue.

Tried this on my wife's 2007 vw beetle. These locks don't like liquid lubricants, it makes the problem worse. I should've used powdered graphite as now although the key goes in and out nicely, it will not turn. It's possible it is the lock housing, but this issue became accute after lubricating the lock mechanism. I am now looking to replace both lock and housing, and as stated in the video probably going to cost me around $1000. The lesson learned here is use powdered graphite and not oil!

Her key worked, but it still took a couple of minutes even with her key which isn't nearly has worn as mine (18-year-old car). When I got home, I shut the car off without removing the key or touching the steering wheel. Again it took a couple of minutes of trying to get it to turn. After putting a few drops of oil on the key and working it for a few minutes, it now turns freely!

Hi, thanks for watching, and glad that the video helped! If the inner components of the lock are not damaged, then you've probably solved the problem for a longer period of time. Just pay attention from time to time is it working properly. If it starts to get stuck despite the fact that you've cleaned and lubricated it, then change the lock ASAP. Hope this helps and all the best to you!

Thank you for making this video! Was almost stranded out of town. Tried WD-40 at first but it didn't work. Then watched your video and sprayed WD-40 directly on the key like you showed. Solved the problem and saved the day!

Deighted to say that this worked! Many thanks, only problem is I don't know how good a fx it will be long term and whether I should risk taking car out again, and just have DW40 with me as a permanent companion in the car, or whether I should just drive it straight to the garage to get replacement bolts etc fitted... I'm NOT a DIY person, and could not manage to do this myself; indeed I consider it a miracle I managed even to fix this....

I had the same problem with my 97 Mustang. It was simply a matter of the original key being ‘worn out’ preventing it from engaging the ignition lock. As a member of AAA, I simply contacted an Auto Locksmith affiliated with AAA, had them make a couple of new keys (no charge) and problem solved. Key turned smooth as butter and use of oil was not necessary
