Audi / Skoda / Volkswagen Lock Repair ✔ 

Thank you kindly. Can't tell you how helpful this has been. Now lets see how easy it is to get the parts.

awesome video just completed rebuild thank you for the video saved a ton of money. struggled a bit had to readjust inside parts multiple times to get back in but once i did its working great thanks again

I've been looking for a video that explains this well and this is the best one. Clearest visuals, clearest explanations. thank you so much!

your a genius i opened mine without even having to remove the housing form car and found the broken pieces like you said mighty stuff thank you

Thanks a million, friend, for showing us the right way to fix this type of locker! It did a great job to me! It works! 🙏

never write youtube comments, but had to say thanks for this! Did the trick for me.

Thank you for the explicit video. I have a Golf MK5 (the same mechanism, same parts), I had the problem with the jammed steering lock mechanism, and bought a second hand one, which I tried several times and worked properly, but now the second one, won't work... is it any i don't know position or something that keeps it jammed or should I disasemble the new one and check it inside?

this video helped me fix my VW Jetta 2006 Ignition lock

Amazing deatiled video. Helped me with my octavia lock. Coudnt have fixed it without this video.

Wow I'm going to try this because I'm actually having the same problem with my A6. Best video all is clear

Slt mes collègues... Merci flip key pour l'explication...

Thank you for the video, Is there a way you can repaire the column lock whene it operated without the lock cylindre fitted? Thanks

Merci beaucoup de votre vidéo qui nous a été très utile !!!

hi great video. I have a mk5 seat ibiza ....do u have a vid on how to get the barrell of the car please help thanks

Thank you for the video. Very informative! By the way, anyone who attempts a rebuild. You may leave out the long rod out and the short spring loaded rod. Also, i would advise to use a dremel and shave off the spring loaded tab on the inside of the housing that's attached to the black circle seen on the outside of the housing. Good luck!

I am very glad to hear that it helped you in repairing your lock.

If you cannot turn you key to the ON position hold tension on it while tapping on wheel lock with hammer. Locking lever inside will not fully depress until both holes line up. I also left clip in place while re-installing into new housing. My OEM ignition housing was hard to turn at first. Some people say not to but I had to cycle the housing, with a flat head, thru Acc, On, and off a few times to free it up. Just put it back in the ON position before re-installing the lock. Pay attention to the position of the start switch too.

Thank you very much. I have an Audi A6 with broken switch. Thus helped alot.

Very nice video but in the case of turning switch on and dont have power the problem is with the electric part of the switch or because i dont feel the tention of the spring is something broken inside the cylinder?

Any advice if you can’t line up both key holes? 😊

Ohh my goodness thats a money maker!!! And a GREAT video!!! But, you could say HELLO!! Thanks Will

great video....so do u know to program keys in skoda...which programmer do u use??

Very informative good job 👍

Thank you very much, it helped me alot

salam alykom thanks you so much for this video

Кажись, на 3.13 не хватает "солдатика"- той детальки, которая вставляется сверху... она на пружинку ставится. Вставлять при сборке лучше сверху- а то вылетит. Может, можно и без нее- но я собрал как было. (Только выкинул тот дурацкий силуминовый кусочек корпуса, который, говорят, у всех отламывается...) И еще там штифт такой внутри корпуса есть, сантиметров 5 в длину, в одной из канавок- зачем он там- Бог знает... вроде, он ничего не держит... но и его я оставил. (У меня- Seat Altea 2006)

Great information. Helped me fix my lock. Take your time with this one guys, I went in a bit hot to start with and ballsed it up ;0) Sat down the next day with a fresh head and a cup of tea. Sorted.

hi guys! very good video! question... have you got one that shows how to re-barrel the actual ignition barrel? i have a feeling that a couple of the wafers in mine have worn and is causing damage to my blade. i need to get in and replace them. if anyone can assist with this, i'd be very grateful! Thanks in advance!!! :D

merci. très utile!!!

Dear friend very good your videos I want to make an appointment I have a suzuki kisashi year 2010 and pass the following with the start button step 1 press the button 2 times and if it turns off the foquito of the key turns on and if it does not turn off it does not start that I spend the least time thinking you have any suggestions thanks

Muito obrigado! me ajudou muito

Thank you very much

Dear friend I need your help. I disassemble a cylinder of my polo 2003 1.2 12v, and I lost a tiny pin /knob at the inside end of the cylinder. Do you know where to buy one or if I need it at all?

Hola amigo buen video. 😅Mi Octavia en el segundo punto del contacto no ilumina nada, supongo será a vería del clausor, que opinas?

hallo sir. Can you explain me how remove the only antenna lock cylinder?Because my doesn't work and i want replace it.

Thank you for this video however I am having a problem. I have a 2002 VW Golf and the piece that turns the switch broke. I bought a steering column from the junkyard since that's the only way to get the housing. I am using the parts from inside the housing and I get stuck when I turn it to the on position to insert the lock cylinder. It pushes out toward the lock cylinder so there isn't enough room to insert the lock cylinder and there is no spring action. It also pushes the white plastic out as well. Any thoughts. Thanks

Great video! Very thorough! Question: My friend accidentally locked (OFF) my new ignition housing (he was testing it)...will that make it so I cannot connect my ignition cylinder (which is on order from the dealer)? My understanding is that they both have to be in the ON position. Thanks in advance for your response.

my wheel lock is fine. I believe the problem is my key cylinder. can that be repaired or should it be replaced?

If the key won’t turn how do you line up the holes to get the wire in?

Great clear video . BUT ! There is a spring loaded clip for the steering lock mechanism located at the bottom of the casing, and also another spring loaded pin in the centre which is not shown in the film.

the only vid that was right ty

El video es realmente explicativo, pero por desgracia no me deja meter el bombin en el clausor, alguna recomendación ? Gracias

Ekstra!!!! Dooobar snimak.

Man ... THANK A LOT !

Thank you, very much !

I have an Audio A4 2007. Right now, the lock is jammed. Using the key, I cannot turn the lock to align the lock to the hole. In the video, you suggest to use a plier if the lock is jammed. So do you mean to use the pliers on the key and try to turn it? How much do you believe all the internal parts cost? Thank you for the video, very detailed in informative.

Bhai laura k lock set me ek needle b h, use kaise set karna h uska kya use h?

Thank you for the very detailed video! I need to do this on my mk5 rabbit, but am currently struggling with removing the ignition. There are no hexs on the top of the bolt for removal. Is there a special tool or trick necessary for removal? Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Hi, this is great video but I m having another problem... "Good guys" tried to steal my VW 5 Plus yesterday night, they drill a hole in my hatch, come all the way to fornt seats, pull out ignition lock (only cylinder) and HOPEFULLY thank god! immobilizer did its job. When I came to car I m prety much sure my steering wheel was locked, but I was able to unlock steering wheel with normal screwdriver and start car with my car keys near immo. I parked my car in garage, and turn off car with my screwdriver. Than yesterday evening I watch your movie and see that I can just order new ignition lock with new keys and just replace immo chip from my old to new keys. Everything OK, I said nothing special and I ordered new ignition lock. Today after my work, I started to disassemble by my "video memory". Since lock barrel was broken I did not have to rotate key to exact position as I saw where is line to press pin that is holding lock in place. But what a mistake, ignition lock came out easily BUT I DID NOT REMEMBER that key must be in ON position. So probably I removed inition lock in wrong position (I do not know if this is possible). Than when I tried to unlock steering wheel (without ignition lock) with screwdriver it does not unlock!!!! I see white plasctic part holiding all parts inside lock but at the moment I have no courage to disassemble lock. First I sad I have to ask profesional about possible problem. So here is my question: 1.) Is it possible that I removed ignition lock in wrong position (I know this is not possible with complete position but my cylinder was pulled out by car thief so I was able to remove ignition lock at any position)? 2.) If its possible, how can I put lock in correct position to unlock steering wheel? Many thanks for your answer. Katrina

querido amigo muy bueno tus videos quiero hacerte una consulta tengo un suzuki kisashi año 2010 y pasa lo siguiente con el boton de start paso 1 presiono el boton 2 veces y si se apaga el foquito de la llave prende y si no se apaga no arranca eso me pasa el rato menos pensado tienes alguna sugerencia gracias

I have a 2002 volts wagon Jetta TDI my switch goes around and around, can you do a video on it, and do It need to be reprogrammed

Could this be done with the ignition assembly installed? If not, do I have to take the air bag and steering wheel off to take the cylinder out?

How do you replace the electrical portion of the lock assembly?

Any idea on how to lower the steering wheel lock nut without using the key? i am in the process of swapping my old lock housing with a new one. Well I was playing with the new one and the steering lock popped up so now I can't match up my key antannae part with the cylinder. The key is at a 90 degree angle but the gear on the lock assembly is straight up. Any suggestions on how to manually turn this without having to take it apart? Hope this request makes sense.

Can u repair my lock it's slightly jammed skoda yeti

Flip Keys Awesome post! One question. Is it possible to remove the ignition lock barrel without removing the steering wheel?

I have pulled the ignition apart, removed broken parts and am trying to reassemble but I have a few more parts than you have in your video, an extra spring and a plastic piece that looks like some sort of of locking mechanism. I don't know exactly where the black piece or the extra spring came out of. Where do I go from here?

Thanks sir g

This demonstration assumes that this assembly is operating correctly and hasn't malfunctioned. Yet. These things go together great but are designed to not come apart. This is German engineering.

I have a problem, my key does not rotate in position to unlock it, how do you do it in this case?

Do you have to use a Scan Tool With Anti-Theft System Security Access For Installation of a new Ignition Lock Cylinder & Keys

Hi u can fix ur cam (ur the best .i see athers but thy r sooooooooo bad )

Nice vídeo help to repair VW Golf MKV 2004...

Where does the long round skinny piece of metal go ?

Hi I have a audi b7 2.0t with my key getting sticky on start and causing the starter to grind, do you have the spring part number?

Ive just bought an audi tt 2005 but only has 1 key i still have my audi a6 2001 with 3 keys would swapping the barrels over work ?

How can I put the steering wheel lock on if I have the ignition barrel still attached to the steering wheel and just components taken out and cleaned ? Thanks

How do you remove if you key wont turn at all?

hello friend I have a model SEAT IBIZA car and I have the same problem given current but not completely turn the key to turn told me I have to change where the key is inserted must be programmed key I hope you can help me thanks

Sorry for double post but I watch this movie all over again few times. If I disassembly my ignition lock (with steering wheel locked), can I put part at 3:45 inside lock in CLOSED position (I can not see if you pressed - unlocked or unpressed - locked). This is very important as other way this assembly is not possible if complete lock is not removed. Also help with this problem is needed. Since I do not want to remove complete lock from car - I want to disassemble and assemble with lock housing still in place - if I remove all parts from lock - will this unlock my steering wheel?)... If not how can I remove actual lock part so my wheel is unlocked? Sorry for my locked lock question :)...

I am having an issue where I can not get the lock cylinder back into the housing. Both are set to the "on" position, however it will not let me turn the key once I have the lock cylinder into the housing.

Super sir

Всё чётко. Хотя без перевода и без звука.

Hi, i have one a3 with this problem, i rotate to start position but the key dont come back to on position i need to twist back, is the spring?

Absolutely AWESOME video, best on Ytube, deserves 40,Million likes and def 2 Billion subscribers at the very least! Sir you're an unsung Legend, can we all endorse you to be the next President/ Prime Minister ? Then maybe you can Hack the (Criminals in Charge Bank Vaults, and have a good share out) 🙂 HaHa,,,,

how do you take out the lock cylinder if you can't get the key to turn pass the steering wheel unlock position??

I have a question. I got into a mini car accident & when I got home with the car the next day I wanted to use it , it wouldn't turn on . My car is completely dead . I wanna know if this video would make my car turn back on . I have a 99 jetta engine is a 2.0 I really need help !!!!

Funktioniert so nicht ganz, an der Seite ist ein langer dünner Zylinderstift im Schloss der in der Mechanik von dem Lenkradschloss einen kleinen gefederten Schieber zurück hält. Wird beim Ausbau nicht darauf geachtet geht er beim Entnehmen des weißen Kunstoffrings schnell verloren ist wohl bei diesem model nicht vorhanden oder abgeschliffen worden.

hey man mine's jammed. How much probability if I use pliers and force it will pass to on position? thanks in advance

where does the pin go in the ignition lock because I can't find it on any of these videos?

My key don’t turn so how do Get the barrel out

I have 2007 jetta 2.5 and in the United states and it doesnt let me turn the key all the way to on to align it. How do I do it ?

I have a mkv and bought a new housing and i disassemble just exactly how you did step by step but it won't let me turn 90 degrees with the flat head screw driver. It seems that the lock tripped or something. Please help!

My column lock is stuck in the locked position, it's a brand new housing assembly. Can't get it to rotate to the on position to disable the column lock?

Where do I get the new parts to replace the broken ones?

Can’t turn it to align the hole for wire

You either missed or ignored to mention several important parts. They not even in your video.

hello sir if i lost my key than how ill rotate the ignition... can u help me

Kaha se ho app shop kaha pr h

What can I do if I can not to turn away the key to the unlocking point to remove the complete lock?

My fix time and time again is just remove the steering lock mechanism you don't need it it's a pain in the arse

SBB to program Skoda till 2006

I did everything!! I muted, turned volume up and down, refresh webpage, skipped through the video. It doesn't have sound. ... Right?

Don't waste time and money! I spent less that $5 and two minutes and I was done. I used a Graphite Powdered Lubricant, squeezing it into the ignition/key hole by using a paper clip to hold open the ignition door. Immediately put in the key and turn back and forth until the ignition turns.

The lock Smith didn't want me to see what he was doing.... charged me $38 for a 5 minute fix

There is a BIG step that he's not showing here, this plastic ring isn't for holding the parts together. There's a metalic cap on the side that you have to remove with force and then take out a safety lock, but if you do this you are ruining the lock cylinder forever.

I just paid 700 usd for this😞

bad focus

And the parts that were broken? You Just trow them away????? An important part Of the security, without that parts, if you accidently turn key, the engine stops and the steering,,, lock it self!!! With the Car in movement!!! When the ignition is in New state, it only lock the steering when you take the key out Of the ignition, with this vídeo you Just put lives in danger,

Half the video was blury and talking would make it much easier to follow. Trying to read while lookin at a blury video is a but shit.
