Ignition Key Jamming
 

Sometime I find I cannot turn the key to start my X. I wiggle the key a bunch before it will turn. I have tried wiggling the steering wheel, but this does not seem to help. Anyone else had this problem?

try wiggling both the key and steering wheel at the same time

It's happened to me a few times also. :dunno:

Always nice to know I am not alone.;)

Some pretty hot Avatar's on this thread so far.:smokin:

Does it happen to you at the worst time? You know, when someone is watching you get into your beloved X, you put the key in, and immediate panic strikes. :yikes: Oh noooo,:banghead: not now. Some people find pleasure in that. You know, like when you see an expensive sports stuck on the shoulder.

BTW- Thanks :)

There is a small chip which is used to turn it on, take the key out and BLOW VERY HARD (no pun intended :))

Yes, it is usually when someone wants to see it and/or go for a ride. Hence, I try not to brag it up too much. I am the only one in town with a BMW, so it does draw a lot of attention though.:thumbup:

BTW - you are very welcome.
