Leak from rear sunroof area on 99 Disco TD5

[Tonyrec]

We would appear to have a water leak from the rear sunroof area on our 99 Disco.
Water is congregating in the offside rear headlining just above the rear door.

Anyone any ideas as the headlining seems like a big job to remove or is it an easy fix?

When my front one ws leaking, Rogers just ran a bead of silicone round the outside. Worked a treat. (Experience teaches me to blow out any water with an airline before doing this, else the silicone won't stick.)

Just had to fix mine 98tdi Not to bad to do all trim on mine just pulled off and then I justlet the rear of the lining down. Undo the multy spline(star)scrws and lift the roof seround.dry out and seal with silicone.SEAL THE SCRWS WITH SILICONE as thay go through the guter(I dident the 1st time )On mine it was the front edge that leaked, but that may be because the previous owner had flatend the roof (very slight I did not noteice until I got up to fix it. Have fun (I mean it. Its just grownup mecarno)
