Automatic door lock clicks on and off every time the speed either goes above or below 10 MPH?

Are you asking if the locks do that or do you have a problem ?

Sounds like a door ajar switch is failing, does the door ajar indicator flash on and off?

There is a problem with the locks – the continually lock and unlock.

The door ajar indicator does not flash on and off.

Many cars allow the programming of door locks to automatically lock above a certain speed. It is something you can usually set yourself. Sometimes the dealer needs to do this. They should not un-lock at all, even if dropping below the set speed. I’d suggest a visit to the dealer or a well respected VW-Audi independent shop.
