Hytsep Posted Thursday at 11:19 AM Posted Thursday at 11:19 AM My wife has an 2015 Audi A1. Got the call last night when she got to work that she’s took the key out but radio and dashboard stays on. I got to it and confirmed. - Parked vehicle. Turn key, engine turns off and blower stops. - removing the key, radio stays on and sterling lock does not engage, dashboard also stays lit up. - opening door has no change. What I’ve done so far: sprayed some silicone lubricant in to the barrel to see if it’s a sticking mechanism. I found that a few taps to the barrel and fast inserting and removal of the key will make a latch or mechanism in the barrel release. Wondering if there was any known issues or things I could look for in replacing it?
