I have a problem with leakage into the car. I think it is coming from the roofrails. Does anyone know where I can find how to dismantle the roofrails. I can't find anything in the workshop manual (maybe I'm not looking clos enough).
 
It's unlikely the roof bars can leak inside the vehicle, as they bolt into special fitting which doesn't enter the vehicle. If the wrong bolts are fitted (too long), it's possible that a hole could be punched through the roof, but if fitted correctly the roof bars can't cause leaks.

Thank you for the response. I've started taking down the different pillars, and will remove the ceiling inside. I have a problem with the sun-roof curtain, so I will check the sunroof drain hole at the same time.

Please take some photos for us to share, every little bit helps ;)
 
When you fit the LR genuine roof rails on a FL2 you have to put some sealant in the right place. The instructions are online somewhere.

I found that both sunrooof drain hoses were not fitted. Both hoses are now in place and it looks like leakage is gone. Sorry, but I forgot to take pictures.
