84 126 300SD key/lock issues

Key is the high security key with different cuts on each side of the key. Issue occurs with both driver's door lock and ignition. Sometimes the key works fine. Other times it has to be jiggled and attempted to be turned multiple times before it works. What's going on? Had a replacement made at a locksmith with a machine that reads the key and produces a copy based on the original key and not on the existing key itself. New key has the same issues. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes it wont turn.
