Sunroof leak

Hello ,
This is the first winter with my Porsche 997.2 4S 2010 .
And in the first rain I discovered a leak from my sunroof .
In 2 points , It's in the inner part in both sides of the driver and passenger .
The main leak is in the passengers side .
Is there something I can do ?
where is the drain for the sunroof ?
Please try to help me .
Best Regards ,
Noam

some once told me there are "channels" to drain water, they might be clogged?
Or maybe an Iranian conspiration?
Just joking noted you are in Israel, how many P dealers do you have there? Do you have independent porsche mechanics?

If you open the roof you will see that the water drains along both sides and you can not see it but it goes out the rear kinda down the roof line... you may want to try to open the roof and pour a few cups of water along the sides (with the roof open and see if the water backs up or goes down the drains towards the rear.. If you do it in a dry garage you should see the water come out under the car at some point. If it doesn t go down then you know those drains are clogged.
Off topic a little, there are other drains under the front hood that have to be kept clear if you want a dry car inside. The first time is the hardest until you locate all the drains.

Also make sure you are closing the roof all the way and properly.
