Yes. First thing to check is the drains. Open the roof and look in the front corners. Run a long wire down them to clear, or blow out with compressed air.
On mine, I found that it leaks where the metal frame meets the glass. This point is inside the sill which usually catches (and drains) leaks. I removed the sunroof (6 bolts - visible if you tilt it open) and got some Permatex black Butyl sealant at an autoparts store. I sealed the glass to the metal frame, and also the metal frame to the fabric seal with the butyl sealant. Reinstalled the sunroof and it has not leaked at all for almost a year...through several heavy rains. The butyl sealant has held up really well.
