I'm curious if this noise is normal that I am hearing. I am not referring to the ticking noise as I know it is related to the fuel injectors. Its more like a whirling noise I guess? I'm not sure how to describe it. Sometimes I can hear it in the cabin while other times all I hear are the injectors. Does anyone else hear this in there cars?

Oh, I should mention this is a 2016 SS A8.

do the 16s have a sound tube? I couldn't watch your video but the text leads me to think sound tube, which can be removed.

No, the sound tube was deleted on my car. I wonder if the noise is coming in through the whole that was there though. I tried my best to cover it, but maybe it wasn't good enough.

I didn't hear anything unusual in your video. It sounds about like my 16 SS. My sound tube is removed and the hole covered with a cap.

A 1" Hillman plug from your local hardware store and some black gasket maker do a nice job and look stock. You don't need a lot of the black rtv, just enough to keep it from popping out.
