    I take it you've tried rocking the steering wheel while trying to turn the key?

    i. Could be a worn key or barrel. Try turn the steering wheel while turning the key.

    ii. Expensive €70-100

    iii. You'll have to bring it to an audi garage, AA are among a good few who will deliver your car.

    iv. What year is the car? if its new enough bring it to an audi garage.
