On a front door You must replace the entire door latch. Part #3B1-837-015-AS it lists for $184.26. You will need a special 12 point male bit to remove two screws visible when door is open near latch. Window track rivets must be drilled out and re-bolted near latch. This needs to be done so the inner door panel will move far enough away to slip out the latch. This job requires some patience the first time you do it. I'm sure the same applies to the rear door. Probably a different part #. Check with your local dealer. By the way I don't know the answer because I love to work on VW. I hate them, but it pays the bills!
