The ignition barrell stuck inwards today after taking the key and would let the key back in until it popped out.

Is this an easy fix? squirt of silicone spray or something?

A really worn key will also cause a sticking key. A light lube not to attract dirt is best...a real locksmith uses dry graphite. A real locksmith can either read the cuts on your old key and code cut a new one, or cut a new key to say, the trunk lock.

Spoke ( i think that's him) offers a complete lock and key rebuild service too.
