Default Whistle while accelerating

Recently got the 2019 TT and noticed high-pitch whistle while accelerating gradually. Dealer says it’s normal. Had a 2016 TT which I sold already and didn’t have this noise. Wonder what your opinion is?

Here is a video, starting at about 11 seconds into the video where I slowly accelerate from 16mph, you’ll hear the whistle

Is this whistle with the stock 2019 intake/filter? The reason I ask is that when I went from stock to aftermarket intake on my 2016 I picked up a similar whine. Now back to stock all again quiet.

Everything is stock, no mod. It’s more pronounced in dynamic/sport mode. Taking it to my trusted mechanic to get his opinion.
