Default Has any heard this sound before???

My 2015 A3 started making a squealing noise when unlocking the doors. At first it would only happen occasionally, now it happens every time I unlock the doors. Brought it into Audi and they told me the actuator is most likely failing. Any ideas before I get it replaced?
