Where is the ignition lock of the Volkswagen Touran located?
Years 2003-2015

Answer

The ignition lock is that assembly which is placed on the steering column and, with the appropriate key, allows the engine to be started. There are usually three positions: one for unlocking the steering, one for starting the electrical system and one for starting the engine. In the long run, especially if the machine is used a lot, the block tends to get damaged and no longer work correctly; one of the most common symptoms is the wrench getting stuck in the piece or blocking it. Unfortunately it is not a temporary failure and could recur, therefore it is advisable to replace the cylinder; for the Volkswagen Touran the cost of the spare part alone is around 20 euros on the internet. To this cost we must add the cost of labor, about 100 euros, if you go to a mechanic. The replacement can also be done by yourself, but a good knowledge of the disassembly and electrical system is required.
