Rainwater ingress through windscreen. Coolant water (and entrained air) rushing through heater core. Air Conditioning condensate moving out of vehicle.
It isn't necessarily an indication of a failure or impending failure. Annoying yes. Critical-maybe so, maybe no.
Have you noticed a reduction in the level of coolant in the expansion tank? Any water in the oil? Does the heater work? Is the floor mat on that side wet?
Check these out, take two aspirin and call me in the morning.

Heater core or sunroof drain? Do you smell antifreeze when you run the heater? |

they all do that.. it is the water/coolant running through the heater hoses... I have a 96 and it has always done that...years and no problems.. unless you are hearing somethign different I dont think you have anything to worry about.. |

joeylafever is right...and the sunroof has nothing to do with what you are hearing so leave it alone. |
