Just wanted to let everyone know that has a pano roof. It seems that the dealer can adjust it for wind noise that you think is coming from the drivers side window.
I took it in for tweaks on minor issues and mentioned I don't feel air but the drivers side window i can hear wind noise and I don't know if it is the mirror or the window its self. When I went to pick it up, he said it was actually the pano roof was not aligned properly and the tech adjusted it to the correct position and sure enough the wind noise is no more!

I have the same noise in my 2022 SEL WITHOUT the pano roof. Between 30 & 40 mph the driver window/door whistles quite loudly.

I also have wind noise without any sun roof. Coming from near the top drivers corner of the windshield. Cross wind seems to affect it.
My 2022 has been doing this since sometime after I bought it in Feb of last year, though it was the wife's car and I rarely drove it enough to notice. Now that it's my primary car, I've noticed a pronounced wind noise near the top of the driver side door window past about 45mph, and that a cross wind coming from the right side of the vehicle to the left makes the noise much worse.
If this was a design problem I would assume since the car is symmetrical, it could be duplicated on the passenger side door if the wind was blowing from the opposite direction, but no matter what direction the wind is coming from, when I'm in the passenger seat I hear no wind noise on that side at all.

Based on a later post linked to another thread, I did check the driver fender foam insert and didn't notice it out of place, so I'll be doing some troubleshooting with tape in various places to see if I can localize it.

I'm thinking that the window may not be raising fully into the weatherstripping at the top of the door frame on mine, but that's based on nothing more than a quick look at the dirt build-up on the window where it meets the rubber. Compared to the passenger side, that dirty/clean delineation isn't as pronounced on the driver side as it is on the passenger side.

I have the same wind noise at the top of the window. I have taped the exterior and the interior both where the window goes into the track as well as where the door weather strip meets I still get the noise drives me nuts!! Any fixes?
