Hello everyone!! So today ive put a new steering wheel on my golf edition 30 and its seems now when i put the car in park and go to turn the car off and take the key out the key it gets stuck and wont come out , the only way i can get the key out of the ignition is by disconnecting the battery ,then im able to remove the key, and all ive changed is the steering wheel today and and 2 days ago i put an aftermarket dsg gear knob on. doe's anyone know why the key could be getting stuck or how to go about fixing this? any help would be very greatful. thank you

I trust you are aware you need to be in park to remove the key?
sounds like you have adjusted something in the gear-lever that it doesn't register its in park, so hangs onto the key.
it may be the gear boot blocking full travel
