You might wanna try these steps:

Move Things Out of the Way. When your roof is leaking, that's bad enough.
Contain the Water. If you have a leaking roof, try to contain it as much as possible.
Relieve Water Pressure.
Tarp the Roof.
Take Photos for Insurance Documentation.
Call a Professional Roofing Company.
Continue Regular Roof Maintenance.

You need to call a roofer to install some metal flashing pieces. That will create a metal channel for the water to flow down instead of through your roof. Look in the Yellow Pages of your local phone book.

Water Leaks and Potential Chimney Flashing Issue on Older Roof

If it is near the chimney, it will almost certainly be the flashing although water normally runs down the internal brickwork as well. Unless the wet area is further down the slope from the chimney. Water always follows gravity but can be deviated by just a roof nail in the way. Another thing to check is that you haven't lost the capping shingle that folds over the top of the apex of the roof. That shingle is susceptible to wind damage.

Water leaks in garage roof

It sounds like the sheets were incorrectly installed. The nails should be in the higher section of the corrugated iron rather than the valley, the lower part. If it is in the lower part, it is constantly wet when it rains, so will leak. If you can identify which nails are leaking, clean that nail head and apply some silicone or spray with bitumastic sealer. If the roof is old, replace it. pre-drill the holes and use a small blob of silicone.

It is going to be the seal in your moon roof. Unless you have holes in the top of your car you can be sure that the water is coming from there.

What is the average lifetime on roofing flashing on a roof to chimney?

I assume your flashing is lead and not synthetic. There is no definitive life span on lead but can be affected by where your live, as it will degrade at different rates due to natural and assisted errosion from industry pollution etc.
What is the exact problem ???
