Drivers door lock won't turn....

Looks like its given up on me on my 260E. The key will turn 1/10 times....ehhh.

Anybody else have this problem? The other door and ignition works fine, so its not the key.

I suppose this is something I have to get from the dealership. Anybody got a ballpark figure for it or any tips?
In the FSM it says I gotta have the key turned to 60 degrees....so I better not touch that lock again until I gotta remove it.

Thanks,
Robert
