You need to take the door trim to have a look.
The barrel is held on with a large circlip. It might just need to be replaced.

whats happened is the pin that inserts into the door lock mech has snapped off. when you take your door card off in the bottom of the door will be a spring. You need to get a replacement lock bar only a couple of quid from VAG easy fix. done loads of them
