Actually it's a 1988 325i convertible

Sounds like a bad ignition switch if the wheels aren't up against the curb and you tried both keys

Sounds like you need a new key or the ignition switch is bad. If you have another key try that first.

Thanks, bretb & hemicuda.

i have a 1994 325is im having the same problem but it isnt the ignition switch it the key cylinder assembly and its being a bitch to get out
