95 % chance its your lock cylinder.
the ignition switch is located down by the firewall and
could not hang up the show.
there could be a problem beyond the lock cylinder but within
the column?

You have to chew him out and shame him into pricing things properly. LOLOL
And I didn`t take it to him this time. :-)
I was just worried about setting off the airbag and didn`t want to crawl
all under the dash
incase it was the ignition switch at the bottom of the column.

Title: Leave Your Car ALONE Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 10:50:00 +0000 Author: founditsharedit
I have to worry about some car owners. It’s not like you buy a car without due consideration as to how it looks and whether you’re happy with what driving it says about you. Why, then, do people do this:

Seriously, did their to-do list for the day read “buy Volvo estate, spray gold, get out maarker pen, prang it” ?
Or this one -was it a case of pop down to Sussex, buy a Suzuki Swift, drop by Halfords for a nice macho interior and remove any questions about a) your favourite colour and b) does anybody want a lift?
