Default Wind noise

2018 Q5 PP..I admit the cabin is quiet, but recently Ive noticed some wind noise coming from driver side. can't comment on passenger side yet, as I haven't sat on that side. Its sounds like some wind is penetrating from door seals intermittently. Worse in gusty winds obviously. Just wondering if this is normal or something I should address with the dealer.

What speed is the noise most prevalent?

I would check the integrity of the door seal around the perimeter (they usually slide on a metal strip that is part of the door).
Look underneath the door and see if the seal is intact with no pinches or malalignments. You should be able to see if the seal
is installed properly. Not sure if Audi glues on their seals or if they free float. If everything looks good to you then it's off to the dealer.

Thank you. The seal seems intact.
