    Boot frozen shut

    The car boot is frozen shut i.e. the key won't turn.

    Any tips?
    I'm alright Jack

    Squirt of WD 40 into the lock mechanism, or get Mrs BB to breath fire into it!
    Clarity is everything

      A chap on one of those scrimpers programmes said washing-up liquid prevents them freezing up in the first place. Not sure how good this is for locks in the long term though.

              I thought about leaving the engine running for a while to elevate the levels of CO2.

                where there's chaos, there's cash !

                  Give it a thump. Works for wheelie bins.
