i dont know if its coz of the cold..my my drivers door wont open or lock with the key..the key goes in but wont turn :S and none of my keys open the passenger door anyway so i keep having to climb through the boot dukes of hazard style to get in lol..

anyone have any idea why it could be doing this?

hopefully its just the cold/ice.try and squirt a lil de icer in the lock.hope this helps.

yeh thats not a bad idea...iv tried heating my key up with a lighter but still no joy lol.

It's the cold haha.

Breathe on the bit where you put your key in about 10 times and it'll melt the frost.

did you get it sorted?

i dont know what would look more daft..breathing on the key hole or jumping through the boot looool

and i tried the de-icer thing and so far so good mate cheers..will see how it is in the morning lol

u cud always just break the window

haha my cars the same ill post some pics of the snow and how bad it is round here!!!

if all else fails il just piss on the lock

Same happened to me tried climbing through the boot to unlock it from the inside but it didn't work so, just poured warm water on the top of the door and I could unlock it but ^^ Lol im sure your neighbours will love that dan

its iced up inside, either heat ur key up with a lighter or stick a plaster over the lock when ur not in the car, or climb through the boot like i do!
