i've got it at the drivers window, and i have no sunroofs. probably gonna have to pull the headliner to see what's really going on. my guess for me is te roof bars.
do you have sunroofs? it could be a clogged drain line.

It's your sunroof, the water just runs atop the headliner until it gets to the door and pools up.

You will probably find either the tube is broken loose from the collector box or is cracked.

My 2003 Disco II leaks pretty bad from the top of rear door (i.e. tailgate), I have sun roof's but not yet sure wether water is coming from door frame seal?

If it is coming from the sun roof, how do i check tube/collector box conditon? Is it an easy fix?

The rear tailgate is notorious for leaking. Mine would pour any time that it rained. I ended up having to adjust the latch as well as the hinges. Got the door aligned, no more leak.

The only way to get to the tubes is to drop the headliner board. The drain tubes run off of the two front corners of the sunroof frame.
