Default winding sound after trunk is closed

I have been noticing winding sound even after trunk has closed. I was wondering what if this is normal.

I also hear it on our 2010 model year. I have checked a couple of Q5's at the dealership and they also have the identical sound after the tailgate closes.

Same here, pretty sure it is just the locking mechanism engaging.

Its a soft close and locking device, the same as the A8's soft close system for the doors.
