Pics of my new 2011 A4...plus a question

Here are pics of the new car.

I guess I can't upload here, so will post in the pics forum.

My question is this: When the car is off and you open the door you hear a whirring sound like an electric motor...what is this?

Mark.

It's powering up the flux capacitor to allow for ridiculous output from a 2.0L motor.

Fuel pump prepping.

I've noted this too. So would it be bad to be opening and closing the driver's door a lot while cleaning the car let's say? The fuel pump may prep 10+ times before the engine is started.
