Doorlock noise via keyfob

Do you all get a strange whine noise when you lock your doors via the keyfob?

I don't remember it being it loud but tonight locking my doors it was noticably louder from about 5 feet away. No problems with the remote locking or unlocking btw.

Not a big deal just thought I would ask for peace-of-mind.

The whining noise is NOT normal and they say it's a sign that the actuator is about to go...

Mine made the sound a few times on the passenger door lock but I can't remember if it still does it LOL

^Yes, it sounds like a whine thanks because I couldn't find the right word to describe it.

That sucks...would warranty cover it?
