I did on my old 87 Legend. Turned out the be a clogged sunroof drain. You may want to get a compressor and blow out each drain hole. There should be 4. One in each corner of the sunroof area. If that is not it, it may be the weather stipping of your driver's door. That's easy to replace. Hope you find where it coming from and can fix it. Welcome to AZ

for about 5 minutes and sure enough it starts leaking. Im now thinking the leak may be coming form the top of the windshield. see pic

Side curtain airbag
Does anyone out there any instructions on how to remove the molding which houses the side curtain airbag? I'm trying to locate the exact region where the leak is developing from.
Thanks in advance

Same thing! Leak from driver's side curtain airbag
I know this is an OLD thread, but I have the same EXACT thing happening, water leaking from the driver's side curtain airbag. Was the issue ever resolved/figured out? '05 Acura TL

I recently spent a week or two driving around with the interior trim off while I recovered the headliner and was able to rule out the sun roof drain as the source. It was coming from near the corner of the windshield, inside of the roof structure that leads down to the point where the receiving hole for the retainer clip (that has the side airbag label) is. That's why it comes out at that point.
The procedure in the manual for removing the exterior trim strip looks like a pain, but I plan to give it a shot anyway to get a look behind and maybe try some re-sealing to stop the leak.
