Canada Water Leak

Anyone have problems with a leaky sun roof ? I have a 2005 XR and the rain is getting in.

The usual cause is a blocked drain tube. Look for the hole in the channel where the water should drain and see if you can pour water down it and have pass all the way through to underneath the car.

Do you mean getting into your car wetting the headliner, and the interior of your car?

Or just notice there is water on the channels when you open the roof? If latter, it's normal as water seaps in and channels out. If former, then go to the gas station and use the air compressor to pump out each corner of where the water channels. I had this problem on a really old volvo. Happens usually after the fall when dirt/leaves get stuck under my car clogging the drain holes.
