Ignition Starting Problem
Today I noticed that Its really hard for me to turn the key and start the car,Every time i start the caar it gets harder to start the car,It goes halfway fine for all the stereo and all the other stuff to start back up but after that turn,car is not really responsive till u put all ur strength and turn it!What should i do???What might be the problem?I do know that there is nothing stuck up there?
Thanks you!!
Thanks you!!

Re: Ignition Starting Problem
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt there some sort of thin shaft that mechanically moves inside the steering column when the key is turned to "start"?

Re: Ignition Starting Problem
I'd pull your steering column out and check all the mechanical aspects of it, I'm pretty sure there is somethin inside it that moves when the key is engaged.
