How much effort should it take to lock or unlock the door? When I rebuilt the car a couple years ago I took all the tumblers apart, cleaned and lubed them (forget what with) and basically forgot about them.
I rarely lock the doors, but do when on vacation. Whenever I lock/unlock either door I hold my breath because it feels like it is going to bend or break the key. Is that normal? Note: The key turns with ease until the point where it is moving or engaging the mechanism inside the door. The final twist to lock/unlock is where the pucker factor comes in. Oh yeah forgot an emoji (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) |
