wow already?? key ignition
....sooooo... i went out earlier and got some burger king, came home ate passed out woke up a few hours later, went to the car, stuck key in ignition and i couldnt turn the key...wiggled the steering, reattempted ...nothing...the sucker doesnt wanna turn for chit!!! pumped brake and nothing... clutch, nothing, wiggled the shift stick and still nothing, i didnt wanna apply too much pressure causing something to break.... gatdamnit! i got the car yesterday and now i cant drive it.... what do you think is causing this problem? i read somewhere that theres little plastic bars that can easily break... man this sucks.........thanks in advance!

hmmmm.....well ive had this problem with several other cars. you stick the key in, then with a rubber mallet, tap the end of the key several times. then try again. worked for me sevral times before, but i will say this caution....it worked on other cars that weren't Audi's

haha whoa buddy , hitting it with a mallet? lol naaah ill skip that one, well i know i didnt break anything since i havent turned the key violently or agressively while turning it on and off.... a buddy a mine said keep wiggling the steering and that i should try pressing the clutch down and turning the wheel and key... i gave up after sweating for about 15 mins... ill just have to give it a try later.... i hate looking like a dumbass who walks to their car...sits in it..then walks out 15 mins later without even moving the car lol.........

If you parked with your wheels turned left then you turn the wheel to the right as much as possible. If you parked with your wheels turned right then you turn the wheel to the left as much as possible.
