DAMN!, man we was just speaking about the tilt feature for our sunroof. That suxs, Did you use carpet cleaner/leather cleaner/air refreshner/ and also left the windows down in the heat. Also, check your A.C vents too of any water.

Like i said before, wouldve been good if we had a aftermarket sensor for the sunroof to close by itself incase of rain.

close the shade 3/4 of the way and you will have much less water in the inside.. although you may have a shade covered with mildew if you do it too many times

Haa, one time, in my former legend, I forgot I had a bunch of snow on the top of my car because it was a nice sunny day. I decided to open the sun roof = ice and snow all over me and the front of the car!

i feel ya, i left mine completely open one day and it started raining for about 15 minutes before i got out to shut it. i spent forever mopping up all the wet, and it owned my SRS sensors in the seats, but that was a free fix
