The seal around the sun roof is meant to slow down the amount of water entering the roof. That's why there are drains. In newer Volvos, the plastic drain tubes are the problem. The plastic gets brittle, they crack, and the joins fall apart. Why there isn't a single piece of tubing from SR to fender well is beyond me, or at least a clamp where two pipes come together.
Your 2008 isn't the only V/XC70 with water in the cabin. But ALL of them didn't get water in them until past the 50K warrantee period.
