W210 drips inside

Turning right. Wasn't going to post but it flummoxes me.. I don't know where the water comes from. Thinking around the dome light. Area around the sun roof is bone dry. Only get wet when turning right and raining out. Clear weather no problem. Currently car sits at repair center for new radiator but I can Czech things out Tuesday. Any idea of what to look at?

No help, but I like your play on words.

Could be the windshield seal?

It's possible.. But I don't think it could hit me on the shoulder and arm from the windshield, I think that'd hit head/face level. Seems like it drops straight down. Inspected the sunroof area with a flashlight that night and it was bone dry. There was some tiny water drop near the dome, thought maybe the emergency crank butt I popped the lens out and it was dry inside and around the dome bezel. Color me confused on this one

This may not be any help but I think I remember reading that if the drain lines for the sunroof crack, disconnect or get occluded you can have water drip into the cabin of our w210s. You might try replicating the symptom using a pitcher of h2o?
