I'm hearing a very faint hissing sound ( electrical sound) when I turn on the car. As soon as I turn it off and open the door the sound disappears. Wondering if anyone else is hearing the same. Worried if there are any electrical issues that I should be aware of.

I've noticed the same noise from my i5 2022 AWD (Canadian Spec); dealer "inspected" when in on scheduled service and determined the noise as "normal".

Don't agree with their assessment, but also not confidant enough in the dealer to further investigate and not ruin something else in the process.
