Try the search function for a start...
Basically the drainage channels on the sunroof are more than likely blocked... hence the leaking

Hi Jay, I had this problem for almost a year and only gets worse.... I had the roof lining out checked the drainage holes etc etc..
Eventually called a windscreen & sunroof repair guy. When i told him the problem and that it was a Bravo he laughed.. and gave me this tip b4 wasting my money on a call out charge etc..
Right get a tub of vaselene, open the sunroof on the tilt. Then smear a little around the inside of the rim of roof apperture. then close the sunroof and from the outside work a little into the gap where the rubber seal closes on to the car roof all the way around. Wipe off any excess from the glass and roof and that should sort it.
The guy said that more often than not the rubber seal has dried up a bit and shrunk and after a few days the vaselene works its way into the rubber and plumps it back up a bit..
Anyway mine was pissing through b4 in exactly the same place, did mine 2 months ago and not had a drip since.. dont open the roof for a week or so though..
Hope it works for you mate,
Urie.

Common fault sunroof frame/chassis is the problem, the sunroof seal will only prevent the sunroof from rattling. If the drainage holes are clear which they probably will be then your fault lies with the sunroof frame.
Only fix i heard that worked was to remove the whole lot and silicon the whole sunroof frame, rubbing it into all the nooks and crannies.
