Hi Guys,

I have a 2001 Boxster and for the last 2 weeks I noticed that the ignition lock was not accepting the key very smoothly.
Today it got worse and when I turned on the car the key would not snap back into the idle position.

Any thoughts on that? Is this the cylinder failing and can it easily be replaced?
