Fast, Reliable VW Ignition Repairs on the Sunshine Coast
If you’re experiencing issues with your Volkswagen ignition on the Sunshine Coast, you’re not alone. Many VW owners find that their key that won’t turn in the ignition, no matter how much you wiggle and jiggle it. In other cases, the key gets stuck in the “Off” position which won’t allow you to start your vehicle.
We have also seen the key getting stuck in the “On” position whilst the engine is running. This means you can’t shut your vehicle off which can be frustrating and potentially dangerous. These problems are common across multiple Volkswagen models, but the good news is that they can be repaired without the high costs and delays of your local dealership.
We see these issues frequently in Volkswagen models built between 2003 to present which include the:
- VW Beetle, Bora, Caddy, Eos, Golf, Jetta, Polo, Tiguan, and Scirocco – These vehicles often develop ignition issues where the key won’t turn or gets stuck. In most cases, Sunny Coast Car Keys can repair the ignition on-site. If a replacement is required, we carry the necessary parts in stock, avoiding long dealership wait times.
- VW Multivan, Transporter, and Amarok – These models tend to experience sticky ignitions or cases where the key turns to the start position but won’t move further. This can indicate a faulty ignition housing or switch, both of which can be replaced on the spot out of our fully equipped vans.
These issues are caused by years of wear and tear on the ignition system. Over time, the small internal components inside the ignition lock wear down or seize up, making it difficult or in extreme situations, impossible to turn the key. If left unchecked, the problem only worsens, leading to a complete ignition failure.

Posted on Rob Brown31/01/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife had the fob key to her R56 Mini fail. We booked it in and we were told that they would need the car and the other key at their workshop. They had difficulty in getting the BMW software required and so drove my wife home to Gympie ( an hour each way for them). They sorted it the next day and then delivered the car back to Gympie (another hour each way) Did not charge us anything over the original quote. Fantastic service and all done with a smile.
