Its a manual one, it pops up and also winds back, i think it must just be the seal is dodgy but i dont know how to fix it if it can be or would i have to replace it with a new seal or an actual sunroof out of a scrap yard maybe.

Its a 1.0L 12V corsa B ('98)

clean the rubber seal sopy water all of it
then rub vaseline into the seal should stop it leaking worse case ull need a new seal

if the seal is leaking the draining system usaly fix this , (also check your draining)
i guess the leak hit your seat so it gets wet , if so , the leak is where the glass goes into the frame arond the glass (if you understand) ,
to fix this use windscreenglue (what you call it?) use some to mask it up and make a nice glue strip

i guess you
at my language
