DSC-W170 Lens Not Working

Hello! My DSC-W170 problem - can't take pix, lens got a few grains of sand in it, I think. Lens goes in and out when camera is turned on, makes grinding sound, display just says Cyber-Shot while lens goes in and out several times with pauses and grinding noise in between.

Fully Charged Battery
Initialized per customer service
Can view media on card

Sony wants $111 for repair, can buy a refurb from them for about $153...are these refurb trade-ins like mine from people who sent in theirs for repair and decided to trade up? What a ripoff! I can get a new camera for a little more which would come with a one year warranty.

Can this camera be taken apart, lens cleaned out?

TIA!
