Unhappy XC60 2014 leaking roof

Hi all!
Apologies if this is the wrong place to post.
I have got water getting in and onmy roof lining at the rear of my XC60.
I have posted a couple of pictures. I can't see where it is coming from to cause the patch that it is.
Anyone have an idea before I pull the whole lining out?

Only place I can think of is around the shark fin, but the various slopes on the roof seem to make that unlikely.

Thanks for your reply. I did think that also and will be where I start. Think it will be a matter of replacing the gasket and then see how we go.
A dry day would help determine where it's getting in from but they are few and far between at present.

There is a clip on Swede Speed regarding removing the shark fin albeit from a xc90 I’m sure the unit will be identical

I believe there is a common fault leak from the tailgate hinges & bolts, I had this until I sealed them.
I pulled of the plastic trim at the rear of the roof lining after a rainy day & I could see water ingress thru one of the hinges.

If it's a small leak with no real visible gaps Captain Tolleys Creeping Crack Cure is good stuff, not expensive and used a lot on Rover 75's to cure leaks.
