Water leak on A-Pillar

Just picked up a 2008 MDX. Car is solid until I noticed a small leak on the drivers A-pillar. Took out the cover and could not pin point the location. The windshield looks to have been replaced. Tried to see if any water by it and did not see anything. Tried putting some silicone on top where I would thing the leak would come from but no luck. The moonroof drains are clear also.

I was thinking of taking out the weatherstrip but no clue how to do it. Any advise would be great.

Does your MDX have the visor installed? If so, remove the visor and the leak will go away.

Hi, Just bought a 2008 MDX and the beam in between driver door and windshield drips water when it rains. Took it back to person I bought from and he put compressed air down the drains and did water test and it seemed to drain, however it did not last long. Now intermittenly when it rains water will still drip. Took to my mechanic who is not sure what is going on. Also noticed the center row middle seatbelt that pulls down from car ceiling is moldy. Reached out again to old owner and he says perhaps rear sunroof drains are blocked and he will try and fix them. Has anybody had this issue and if so what was the cause and soution?
