    Worn out Ign lock

    G/day all, #1 daughter has Disco Tdi 96. Ign lock is just about U/S, key has to be withdrawn a tad after inserting to get things under way, veh is for sale so problem has to be fixed. Q. Can the barrel & key be replaced?? if so how??? I`ve looked & poked from every angel... Zip. If job is do-able where can I source the bits & pieces Orrrrrr is it a job for a locksmith. Many thanks Tommy.

    must be doable as a mate of mine had the same trouble with his 98 disco and he had it fixed.

    I would say its doable , I know with holdens you can buy a repair kit that has all the tumblers , you just take it to your locksmith and they rebuild it for you , even a mobile locksmith should be able to do it for you

    Same with a Rangie we had. A good locksmith can rebuild one of that vintage.

    Ohh the innuendo

    A locksmith or dealer can help you there. I had the same problem and went the locksmith route.

    Totally agree. I have had mine rebuilt in the past, think only $50-60 if you remove the lock yourself which is easy.

    What is your location, know of a guy in melbourne that does it.
