It is highly possible my wife was fiddling with the door latch inside while I was outside fiddling with the key. This was well before the recall notice.
To remove the cylinder, I recall you need to have the cylinder in an unlocked position, then use a master key to remove the cylinder. You most likely were not given a master key with your TT purchase as I do not believe that is a common practice. A dealer probably does have a master key in their maintenance shop.
