Default Door Locks When I Reach For IT

Had a 2016 SQ5 for about a year now and am increasingly irked with an issue I didn't have with my previous S4, S5 or A8.

Simply this - if I'm out of the car with the keys on me, the door locks as my hand gets near it. I'm certain I'm not touching the handle, so not engaging the lock button. But almost every time, I hear the click/chirp indicating lock engaged.

If I wait a few seconds, the door automatically unlocks. But it's a frustratingly frequent occurrence that makes me wonder if I'm doing something wrong.

Anyone with any insight? TIA...

Probably a faulty or dirty door sensor.
