Help! I have a 1998 996 C4. The ignition barrel seems to have just gone "stiff" and sometimes does not return from position 2 after starting the car.
Coincidentally the remote locking from the key packed up at the same time although the doors still lock using the button on the dash?!?
Can anyone help? Are these 2 things related and whats the best way to sort out - OPC or specialist? Any advice would be welcomed.

Thanks Nel, I may just give that a go. An auto electrician friend had a look today, he thinks the barrel is way passed its best and also the none operation of the cenral locking is a connected problem - he thinks the ignition barrel still thinks the key is in place (as you almost have to force the key out) and therefore will not allow the doors to lock using the fob. New barrel is £160 + VAT at OPC and will take a week to arrive!!! It will of course need fitting on top of that. Welcome to the world of Porsche!
Thanks again
