I finally got my door tumbler to start working again with some graphite lubricate!
However the lock was feeling too loose, so I tried my mail box key. That subsequently unlocked my door
In fact a flat head screw driver is enough to open my car. Comforting to know this I guess, I now lock my trunk and leave absolutely nothing of value in the cabin.
I'm guessing I need a new door tumbler.I also know this is a dealer only item, but is there any way to refurbish the existing tumbler (eg unsticking the pins)?
