Ignition barrels
Ignition barrel repair & replacement — all makes
If your key won’t turn, turns but won’t start, or sticks in the barrel, the ignition lock itself has usually worn or seized. We repair or replace the ignition barrel at the roadside on almost any make — and cut a key to match — so there’s no recovery to a main dealer.
Makes we see most often for ignition faults:
- Volkswagen (all makes) — the well-known 1K0 ignition barrel failure on Golf, Polo, Amarok and more.
- Ford — most often Fiesta, EcoSport and Focus, and every Transit (Connect, Courier and Tourneo).
- Nissan (all makes) — most often Qashqai, Juke, Note and Micra.
- Honda — Jazz, Civic and Fit.
