Wind noise issues?

I have noticed, with only 50 miles so far, that I have a lot of wind noise around my sliding door, as in way more than I noticed on any of my tests drives. The only differences in vans was they had rubber floors, I don't yet. And I have the window in the sliding door, demos did not. I figured the rubber floor will help overall noise, but not from wind.

On the back edge of the fixed window is a rubber trim piece, but it does not ever touch the side of the van, it appears to be for looks only as it seals against nothing. I suspect this is part of the problem. I could easily test this by inserting some foam to seal it.

I know that Indy has mentioned he has wind noise around the windshield. I have not had mine above about 55 mph yet to hear anything there. And his is a wagon so is probably sealed better around the sliding door, at least masked by all the inside trim panels.

Anyone else notice this? I am going to the dealer tomorrow and will ask them about this.

I'm getting wind noise that appears to be coming from the top of the passenger side of the windshield. I'm pretty sure I don't have any significant noise from around the slider. That said, I'm going to ride in it as soon as I can and move around to try and isolate it. I'll post up if I hear anything coming from around the slider. My dealer contacted Ford to see if there is any technical help or fixes for the windshield wind noise. They haven't heard back yet.

Don't think there is a cabin filter in the USA version, European version, yes. Damien89 has one in his Transit.

Took my 2015 250 cargo to dealer for noise from slider and passenger window. They adjusted the slider and its better but still makes a consistent rattle. There was no TSB on the drivers door. Not sure they took my seriously about the noises. Maybe need to go to another dealer.
