Default A8 trans whine

So, for the past 100 miles or so, my transmission has developed an audible whining. Anyone else have a whine to theirs at any mph? At 70 mph in 5th gear seems to be the loudest. Will bring it in to the dealership to look at on Monday. Normal occurrence for corvettes?

I would go back to the dealer. IMO, it is not normal for a transmission to whine at any speed. My A8 has never whined at all - a funky 1-2 shift when you first start out at times, but no audible sounds at any speed or gear.

It might be a tire too.
