Sunroof Leak??

I have a bad leak in ML 2000 ML320. I found it by puring water in the top left sunroof drain hole.(skyroof, I suposes the drains are the same) and it pured like mad all over the drivers floorbards right near the foot brake........

Now how do I fix this?????

NOTE: not sure if this has anything to do with it but a new windsheild was just instaled.

Pls help is raining here!

Sounds like the drain may be plugged somewhere. I have used two methods. I used the stiff plastic line that you put on a "weedeater" and pushed it all the way down and through the drain line till it came out the end below the car body and I have occasionally blew through it from the top with compressed air. Did this on both MLs that I have owned and haven't had a problem. I don't know if the windshield installers could have somehow crimped the line on the side you're having a problem on. Try the line and that should tell you if there is a crimp or some kind of blockage.

I could ONLY get the "weedeater" line half way down...about to the base of the "A" piliar..... if it is blocked would it really leak at the bottom?

UPDATE Click here new problem
