    Is the key broken off inside? Is the key in the on position?

    I would start by calling a locksmith as he will have the broken key out in about 4 seconds. Then I would order a new key from the dealer. If that solves the problem you are set. If the tumbler is still messed up at that point then I would use the new key to rotate and remove the old tumbler and replace it with one for the same key if possible.

        Try wiggling the key while you turn. Maybe wiggling it will help move things around enough for the key to turn.

          hit a big screwdriver into the tumbler with a hammer.

          that will fix your problem. for good.

            I had the exact same problem a few months back. Get the broken key out and get a fresh key. Stick the fresh key in and a paperclip or whatever in the little hole and just work at it and jiggle it around. Sooner or later you will get it to turn right. This is all outlined in the Bentley. It might take a bit, but this will build character for you. If you give up and cannot get it I, personally, would call a locksmith. There is too much crap in there to just take a screwdriver and hammer and go to town, but it is your car.
