Could be a worn key or worn lock barrel - did you try the spare?
Also, be sure to check the ignition lock. If it is difficult to operate you may want to replace it sooner than later. You can get one from Fastlane/Phil. You will need to provide documentation to get an original - matching lock barrel.
Changing the lock barrel while the key still operates it is an easy and quick (5m) job.
If you get to the point that your key no longer operates the ignition lock - then the job is much harder and involves dismantling the steering column.
Congrats on the 190e. Had ours in the family for over 9 years and still love it.
