    Ignition barrel jammed

    Does anyone know how to bypass it?!
    I need my car urgently today and all week as I am in the middle of moving house
    The ignition barrel has been playing up for a while now, but usually abit of a wiggle with the key sorts it out, but now it wont move!
    I can put the key in, but it wont turn

    PLEASE ONLY PM HELP TO ME, OR THIS THREAD WILL PROBABLY BE REMOVED FOR SECURITY REASONS!!

    Do you have a spare key mate? It sounds like the key/barrel is worn, maybe a different key will help.

      Definitly needs a new barrel, Ive just realised it has an imobiliser in the key, so cant just swap the barrel over for a new one, unless the new key is reprogrammed

      I fear a trip to an Audi dealer is in order, I dont want to think about the cost....
