My key fob stopped working a couple of weeks ago....will lock the car but not unlock! I was having to unlock the drivers door manually with the key....this stopped working after a few days......the barrel just starts to spin.........moved onto unlocking the passenger door.......today this has started to do the same.......am now onto unlocking rear door and climbing through!!! is this something simple with a quick fix or am i into new locks???

Is the key the 4 sided type with individual cuts along all 4 edges?

Have you tried lubricating the lock barrel with some very thin oil, i imagine they have barely been used throughout the years, that type of lock barrel used to spin as you describe even when brand new when we had to lock/unlock with key before pdi fired up the remotes.

It could also be that your key has simply worn out and is not pushing the lock pins back fully in the doors, have you got another key?, if not it might be time a new one from the dealer, next question do you still have the keycode card?
