I believe that to get the interior door panel off, the first thing you undo is the screw at the rear, in the door handle recess. I have done it (over a year ago) to change the door lock mechanism.

.....sorry I can't be of more help. I'll look tomoro in the daylight and see if I can jog my memory any more. In the meantime try this site:

there's a download available of the erwin instructions for the A3 interior.

Remove the screw securing the plastic cuff inside the grab handle. Push the cuff down and out. This reveals the 2 main screws that secure the panel. Remove these and the 2 visible screws at either end of the panel (at the top) and then life the whole panel up and out. It is easier with the window down.
