My key has suddenly stopped being able to unlock the drivers door? It still works ok in the passenger door, a bit stiff and works perfect in the boot. The key goes into the lock but won\'t turn at all, to lock or unlock it! Any body had this problem before:xconfused

The drivers door on mine is a bit funny on times!!
Have you tried wiggling the key up & down slightly?? If I do this mine works fine!!!
