   check seals on sunroof, they tend to be very leaky!

   on top of your car, the rubber seal surrounding the sunroof is the problem mate. is there a gap between your paintwork and the bottom of the seal ?

    wind the sunroof winder until sunroof is open as far as it can go
    then seal all the little metal bits corners
    make sure black rubber seal is on properly
    thats what i done not that long ago!! on a mates car and it stopped
    
    dunno why i have not done it on my one yet!! lol
    do it somtime soon! lol when i get paid for tiger seal!!
