wd 40 or similar into key hole. Graphite powder can help. Soap on key. Insert a few times, wobble a bit. Wd 40 fixed mine, but the smell hangs around edit: new key could help, they wear out |

dunno about the cost but suzuki can re-issue a key im pretty sure... thats most likely the culprit. when i bought by zuk i was only given 1 genuine key, so i immediately had it copied and the original kept in a safe place out of use... this way i wear down my copy but retain the original. |

11yrs on one key is a lot of wear... |

It's a suzuki, not a Merc.... They can sell you a blank ( including IMOB ) that will need to be cut/programed to your car...... |

thank you for your replies, this is the steer column mounted keyswitch, that also locks the steering, not the in dash earlier type, i wish it was !!!.this is /was operated with just a plain key, the immobilizer and central locking being on a seperate dongle. unfortunatly my spare key also failed the job........ Regards Bill |

Try a locksmith. I had an ignition barrel collapse on an old XF Falcon. He fixed where it it happened - the drive through of a pub in Adelaide ( I had got in from Sydney that day, so couldn't have happened at a better place)... |

Whilst this works, one day you're going to find that original key no longer works, nor do any of the keys cut from it - it's not just the key that wears, the lock barrel & tumblers do too. |
