Headlight noise?

My drivers side headlight started to sound a little loud last night.

I turned the lights on when I went out, and turned them off when I got to wendy's. When they went on, they were nearly silent, and at Wendy's, the drivers' side was really noisy. Sort of a mechanical-gear-motor sound. It almost sounds like there used to be a lot of grease in the gears and it all suddenly came out. (For you R/C guys, it sounds like a overly tight pinion/spur gear mesh) The light pops up and retracts with the same speed as the passenger side; and the pass. side is not making noise. Should I be worried about the actuator going? Anyone esle's lights noisy?

TIA

Yeah, my driver's side started playing "Ina Godda-davida Baby" one night. What's up with that?
