Roof leak?

A couple weeks ago our roof started leaking. the water was coming in at the vent over the stove. Luckily it wasn't running down the wall, but dripped onto the counter top, so we could put a pan there to catch the water.

During a break in the rain, I went up on the roof and took the vent cover off for the fridge (since it was the closest to the leak) and saw what looked like 3 small spots in the Dicore where water might be coming in. I didn't have time to take the old Dicore off, so I cleaned it and put new Dicore on all over and around it.

When the rain came again, it still leaked. The next 2 days we had rain on and off the whole time. On that first day it was leaking until we noticed that in the evening it had stopped (was around 30 hours after I put the Dicore on and was still raining outside). It rained all the next day, still no leak. . We are back home now and had a Tropical storm, still no leak.

So, do I take it into the shop to see if they can find the leak or take a chance and see if the leak comes back?
