2003 Chevy Cavalier 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

I dont have power locks with my car, and over time using the key to open my door has seemed to jam it up and I have to enter in through the passenger door to unlock the driverside door. Any suggestions?

Spray some white lithium grease in the lock hole (where key goes in).

If that doesn't help, you will have to remove the inner door panel and lock and have it repaired by a locksmith.
