Smart Key is really hard to pull out
thats what shes said.

um, anyway, My smart key in my 05 c230 is really hard to pull out of the ignition. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem, i searched the first 2 pages, didnt see anything.

It starts/ turns off, Lock and unlock are perfect, trunk, etc. But all of a sudden it is just really hard to pull out.

Anyone?

Thanks.

It snaps in and out.. this is normal. Unless this is something that just happened recently and it is A LOT harder to pull out.

Has nothing to do with these as they are not mechanically connected to the EIS. Sorry, I'm not sure what to tell you. Sounds like you need a new EIS.
