good for you for tracking that down. When you have time, it is helpful if you describe how you diagnosed that (and eventually how you fix it).

glad you found t.

I found it after test driving it, I noticed a bit too much play in the lock cylinder. I bought a kit for replacing the cylinder, and used the old tumblers to find out where the new ones needed to be, so no reprogramming was needed.
