GOT IT!!! I don't know how or why but it opened. I lubed the mechanism and
hopefully it will continue to work. To be honest I was trying harder when
the key slot was vertical and that is the locked position. The guys at the
garage must have been messing with it. I always leave it in the unlocked
position.
I did try in both positions before though for sure. Audi gods messing with
me.
Thanks to all that gave suggestions.
