Quick question, on the mk6 you had to take the door skin off to get to the door switch. On the mk7 I don’t see the holes for the bolts to take the skin off on this generation. Does anyone know how to access the door mechanism on the mk7 ?
Screws are in the handle part. Look at the seam and you'll see you can pry the face off. At the bottom of the door card is a lock, make sure you turn it to align with the slot in the door card.

Pull from the bottom up as the rest is clips.

Edit: handle as in the diagonal grab area on the door card, not the door release handle.

OP, did you get this fixed?
Mine seems to be doing it - pretty sure it's the front passenger door as it's not locking unlike the other doors (when the FOB locking is hit).

The car keeps on trying to auto lock when going above 15 mph, pretty sure it's because that front passenger side is not working.

If you replaced it, was the part number 5K1837016J?
