   will probs be the sunroof drain pipe has come loose or is blocked on the drivers side. Will probs need to take the headlining off to have a look.

   Cars with roof mounted ariels suffer from this. Is it pooing inside the interior light at all?
   
   If so remove light and tighten the bolt that holds the ariel (sp lol!) to the roof or taske it off, clean it up and put a bit of sealent under it before refitting.
