Marshall used to say graphite was a no-no if you had an alarm... I've got some Dupont branded PTFE with graphite in an alcohol carrier thats pretty terrific stuff. The Jetta's locks get sticky, I give it a shot with that and its all better. The driver's lock has finally settled down and acts good, the trunk still needs a periodic shot. I should pull that lock and clean it.

Cheap, and you'll be sure that it's the right key. NEVER, EVER put oil in a lock. You will make a mess of it for sure. Get a tube of graphite from your local hardware store, or rub a pencil lead all over the key (powered graphite works much better.)
