Key stick in ignition from time to time
So, here it is... I have a 2002 D2 and the key is difficult to remove (intermittently). I have read it could be the xyz position from the transmission. However if it it only happens once in a while, could it be something else. Would it be the ignition itself? Or could the key be worn
It is getting progressively worse... lately it has to be fiddled with to remove. Looking for any suggestions on where to start and possible culprits. Thank you.
Cheers!

I had a very bad sticking key. Sometimes would take 30 minutes to get it out after driving. One day I shot a bit of WD40 into the key hole and it has been working perfectly ever since. I do see that others say not to put a liquid lubricant in there but Im just saying what worked for me.
Good Luck!

Thank you for all the great advice / experience... so I have figured it out (for the most part). It has to do with the steering wheel lock, if you have the wheel just right - NO PROB - however if it is slightly off, key won't come out. So for now I know what the cause is and will use a work around.
Appreciate the help. Thank you!!
