Any1 have a problem gettin their key outta the ignition after u shut it off? It happened 2 me 2 or 3x in the last month and its not the, 'my steerin wheel is turned and thats why I can't get it out.' My wheel is dead str8 and it won't let me go past the ACC position so I have 2 start it up again and move it even just like a foot and then it comes out. http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/images/smilies/furious.gif

hmm...try putting some white lithium powder in the ignition to smooth things out a little. Locksmiths sell it for sticky locks.

Is that gonna make the cylinder rot8 back further or is that just to get a key out when it's stuck?

It's just lubrication for the mechanisms. Helps the key glide in and out easier, and helps it lock and unlock. It comes in a little bottle that looks kinda like those used for nasal spray. You stick the tip in the lock and squeeze it and it blows the powder in the lock. (no sex references plz) ;)

Hasn't happened on my legacy, but my 99' forester used to do that all the time.
