New Problem

I searched the forum but could not find an answer to my problem. Seems as if the 03 Avalon has the worn ignition issue. Tried graphite with no luck. How dificult is it to change out the cylinder on the 03 Avalon XL?
Thanks,
John

Update

On the off chance that the cylinder was okay, I had a new key cut from the spare and added another shot of graphite. Has been working flawlessly for over a week now.
So, for anyone with similar problems, try graphite and a new key before tearing into the switch.
