I have a MKIV with the same issue, except it is the right rear door.
PITA - It first started as an intermittent problem, but now is stuck in the locked position.
I've read that faulty soldering on some of the wires in the actuator module can be a cause of this. Some lube would probably be good once I have my apart.
What lube should one use for these things? Graphite? WD40 etc?
I read info on how to remove the inside door cover here.

From this picture, could you loop some thin guage wire down the button slot and pull it up? I might give it a shot this evening.
