You should only have to replace the seal to get it to hold a seal but if your car has been in an accident before then the body could be out of alignment then you would need more work.

Most auto stores will carry a rubber weather barrier that you can install in the gaps where the glass closes down on the roof line. Close the sunroof and pour a small amount of water over the top, identify where the water is coming in and then take the weather stripping and place it in the gap.

In each corner of your sunroof there should be drains. Check and see if these have become plugged with debris and unclog.

If the seal is a little hard and dry you may be able to get away with just applying several coats or amor-all or similar product. This should make it more pliable and hopefully seal the sunroof. If the seal is damaged or still won't seal you will have to contact a dealer or look for a replacement.

You are going to need to possibly get a new sunroof for you car. The leak may be unrepairable so you may need to purchase.
