Nope, cleaned the lenses, the sensor, and all the contacts with no luck.
When the AF gets stuck, it makes a noise like its trying to do something, like whatever tells the motor to move doesn't have enough power.
I've tried several batteries, they don't seem to be the issue either.
It does seem to be worse when its cold out, but that could be in my head.

It's not the battery, checked with several. Not the lens, same issue on several. But today the issue happened in full daylight, previously it would happen only on interior lower light shots. Also, I noticed that every time there is a auto focus issue, the ring is out toward infinity or past and can't get back but makes a noise like its trying. If I select manual focus and adjust the ring back, then turn AF back on, it works fine until it focuses out toward or past infinity and it just can't get back.

I will try cleaning the contacts. Its not a light issue, I use the camera for work and have taken thousands of pictures in the same situation with no issues in the past.

When focusing on certain objects, it rotates to infinity and make an electronic noise every time you press the shutter release button, like its trying to rotate past infinity. It will make the electronic noise when pressed and will not try to focus, just stays at infinity. If I zoom in or out on the same object, it will usually focus, then when I go back to the focal length that was an issue, it will properly focus. The issue occurred infrequently at first, now it is happening many times a day. Usually occurs in medium to low light, rarely in good light, but never occurred in these situations the prior tens of thousands of pics. I have tried different lenses, its not a lens issue. The camera has ~75k actuations if that matters.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Last week the shutter made a weird noise, kind of loose sounding, but the pics still came out. It was fine for most of the next day, but then at the end of the day it started acting funny. When I would depress the button, it made an electronic whirring sound. I did that a few times, same result, turned it off and back on and it worked fine. Later in the day it started do the whirring thing and turning it off did not help. I took it back out the next day and it worked fine, but I did not have many pics to take. It seems to happen toward the end of the day after many pictures, if it sits for a while, then its fine again.
I don't know if this could be related, but for the past few months, sometimes when I half press for focus, nothing would happen if I pressed down to take the shot. Some days it would happen more than others.
I have had my k-5 for ~2 years and it has 55k actuation's.
Any ideas? I spoke with one gentleman who thought it might be something to do with the thing that charges the shutter?
Any help would be appreciated.
