  1. Thanks - I'll try it but I dont think it is as simple as that because when it happens I cant unlock the door from the inside either (cant move the plastic lever), so don't think its just the barrel/key interface. I managed to unjam the passenger side once by flicking the inside chrome, door lever. Again makes me think some inner mechanism is sticking.
  2. Over the last few weeks I had had increasing diffculty unlocking both the front doors on my LS94. First the passenger side central unlocking was intermittent (from the driver side key entry) internally the mechanism visibly didn't move the complete distance and I could not force it with my hand. Externally the key would not turn anti-clockwise as if something mechanical (deadlock??) was jamming the mechanism. I have tried lubricating everything I could access but not much help. This happened a few months ago and I wan't too concerned because most journeys are on my own and the drivers door was ok. But a few weeks back the drivers door started doing the same thing, essentially locking me out of the car!! I have managed to work around this by physically banging the door under the lock area and it has eventually free'd up. I am now in a position where i am scared to lock the car for fear of not being able to open it again... Anyone have any idea of what is going on? - when it is jammed it just will not turn and i dont want to snap the key with excessive force. Thanks.
