Ignition key not working on my 308
Over the past couple of months both ignition keys for my Peuguet 308 (58) intermittently fail to lock & unlock the car. The dealerships says I need a £130+ diagnostics check to find out what the problem is. Really?

That's the only way some dealers can fix cars these days. Better a keys and locks specialist.
