Is your sub-panel still attached? It's the piece which slides along behind
the sunroof panel and is attached at the rear hinge points. The pot metal
hinge pieces are prone to breaking which "orphans" this sub-panel somewhere
in the cavity between your headliner and the roof metal.

Ours isn't and when it's not in the correct position, we have the same rain
problem.
