Default Rain water leaking into DISCO front driver side- Any suggestions?

hi all.
just wanted to get any advice on rain water leaking into the driver's side pillar at the top of the windshield.
the land rover dealership said its common on the discos and that it needs to be sealed.
i don't feel like driving to the dealership just for this one thing- has anyone fixed this issue before by themselves? if so w/what?

thanks.

If it is just your windshield leaking, any auto glass shop can reseal it.

You have 2 things that will leak water in the area, a bad seal on the windshield or a leak from the drain hose from the ront sun roof.

I am experiencing what appears to be a similar leak as the poster.
Where does the sunroof drain line run, and if leaking where would the water first appear?

thanks

Solution:

Grab a golf ball and chuck it at your windshield. Call an autoglass company and they will replace all windshield seals including your ruined windshield. Insurance will cover all of it.

if you carry full coverage....

If it is the sunroof, I think it frist comes around the corners of the headliner. I don't have sunroofs and can't be certain. The windshields are common and prone to develope leaks about 6 inches in from either side.
