Hey guys, Love my '01 130k 4L 4x4 auto XJ but, the ignition key won't turn anymore and I can't stand the darn thing just sitting there and laughing at me. It started innocently enough, just push the key in and out a few times and no problem, twist and go.
Well, not any more. Yes I sprayed the lock with WD40 then shoved the key in and out more than a hundred times, three times. It's become a no key turning source of intense frustration. I read the column-pull thread but that is for the older generation XJ. So before I go tearing into mine I want to know what is different like where the facia screws/clips/holding devices are and whatever else changed so I don't mess anything else up.
Thanks in advance for keeping me from just pounding a screwdriver into the lock and being done with it.
