Wet headliner=sun roof leak?
Ive recently encountered what I believe is a leaky sunroof. It will rain and I will end up with the area around the dome light wet. I'm blaming it either on the sunroof seal or probably a bad sunroof drain tube, because I can pressure wash my car and it won't leak, it takes a lot of water to do so. Can someone guide me in the right direction?

I had a similar problem. I ended up replacing the sunroof drain a plastic piece that goes on the back of the sunroof. apparently mercedes didn't built them right at the times. the new one i got looked exactly the same, except that it is filled with black silicone at the edges or underneath. i was surprised when i got it because i paid 50 bucks i think and it looked like a refurbished part, but at the stealership i was told that the new sunroof drains they manufacture get that filling so it won't leak ever again. we shall see i guess.
