Start with the sun roof drains. There have been some recent posts on it. I started a thread not too long ago.

For non-panorama sunroofs, I know there is a drain in each a-pillar. If you open the sunroof, pour water slowly in each front corner, you should see water come out under the car from the drain tubes. If not, the rubber tubes are likely kinked or out of the metal drain tubes.
