Water leaking through key hole of trunk lock cylinder
I'm guessing that this isn't very common but I have water leaking through the key hole of the lock cylinder for the trunk. The lock cylinder has this little metal flap the opens and closes when you insert/remove your key. Well that little metal flap is stuck open which is letting water in. I tried spraying some WD40 into the key hole and used a tiny flat blade screw driver to push that little metal flap to see if it will close but nothing. I tried inserting my key into the lock cylinder and the key will not go in.

I still tried to get the little metal flap to close but no luck. I just put silicone over the key hole and around key cylinder as I need to keep the water out. Does anyone know what the part number is the lock cylinder seal?

Just a guess but you will probably have to replace the entire cylinder. Audi doesn't sell little parts like that, they sell assemblies.
