    Give them a bottle of WASH & GO!
    Hve someone run the hose near the sunroof while you are in the vehicle to identify the source. Silicon rubber may fix it temporarily.

      Sunroof

      Had a similar problem on my gen 3. Water seemed to collect on the headliner so that the first time I braked after a rainy night my passenger would get a cold shower.

      If its a factory sunroof there is an internal gutter that drains through 4 plastic tubes that run down the windscreen and tailgate A frames.

      I'm pretty convined the passenger side tube was loose, cut it back by an inch, refitted and all seems well now.

      I also found 4 of the bolts on my roof rails were completely missing which may also have been the source of my leak.

        Sunroof leaks are usually blocked or disconnected drain tubes

            Sorry, been off the forum for a while as no longer enjoying my truck!

            Drain pipes are in each corner, whip off the grab handle and sun visor to see each of the front ones, the rears are somewhere behind the 'open position' of the glass roof.
