One person spoke about using a file to cut off the steering wheel lock from the ignition assembly - is this a good fix? - and do you have any pictures of this fix?
Thanks!
This is a fix that can be done for no cost, it involves a little work but is 100% effective. ‘Look for Sticky Ignition Fix’using the search function. It is a common fault and should be done as a precautionary measure by everyone. The fix does not cause any problems and the car is just as unstealable. One part is taken out and left out.
The method on how to do it is spelt out in this PDF.
