Appreciated! One more site to track my car!

I just looked mine up since it's been sitting in Bremerhaven for two weeks and it says, "Retrofitting the Receiver Audio Module" and a VIN status of "Open." Ughhh.

Hi,
Did you used above bimmer-recall website to find the status?
Mine was order date 29/08 and have same issue “at the port” for last 2+ weeks. When I searched with my vin in above web site, I did not find any open issues. I am reading some news there are several delays at port might be the reason why we are all seeing this, but how long is a question here.

That is good news! Mine is still in Bremerhaven. I don't know what ship it will be on but WW has one leaving on 11/7 and arriving Baltimore 11/24. With Thanksgiving in the mix, I will not likely see mine until after Christmas.

NOSNOW, I will be very anxious to hear how long it takes your car to get from Baltimore to the dealer.

I am in same phase, ordered on 08/29, current status is “at the port” for more than 2 weeks. Looks like it is going to take more time. Ordered from dealer in Washington DC area and will be ship out to Iowa.

Great news. Mine is still sitting in Bremerhaven. I asked my dealer on Friday and he just said, "it's waiting for a ship."

Could the storms be the hold up in Baltimore? They've had some really bad ones the last couple of weeks.

K-line has a ship leaving on the 10th and arriving in Baltimore on the 19th....apparently no other stops. As much as I would hate to see my car sitting at Bremerhaven for the next 10 days, that schedule would be the best that I have seen.

November 4th? That is great news. I thought it would take longer than that! Now I am more hopeful of seeing mine by Christmas.

The dealership told me they would have it on 4th - The BMW website site now says it is at the dealership. This does not surprise me too much.

How Long from Start of Production to Build Complete?

In mid August, I ordered my 2022 530e (Phytonic Blue, Cognac Leather, M-Sport, M-Sport Brakes, Executive Package) from a dealer with an allocation and was excited when they told me it was a Week 35 build. Well, after going from "Order Received" to "Scheduled for Production", the online tracker went back to "Order Received", same thing for subsequent Week 41 and Week 43 build weeks.

Finally, on the Monday of Week 43, the status changed to "Production Begins" from "Order Received", the VIN was posted and I was happy things were finally moving forward.

Unfortunately, it's hasn't moved forward in almost 2 weeks now. I called BMW Genius and they told me they don't see anything holding up production and indicated that they show production complete on 8 November.

Shouldn't I expect to have seen the progress update by this point?

The MyBMW website is better than nothing but it is not always up to date. When I was tracking production steps, it was slow and then jumped ahead several steps very quickly.

From reading other topic in the other forums 3/4/M3/M4/M5. It seam that they are not updating the status like they used to. A lot of people are seeing massive jumps in status in the productions stage.

Last night we were able to collect the car from the dealer. It is a very nice car and I am happy with. I just wish BMW could have been more honest about the process. This deal does leave a very bad impression of BMW!

It was nice that they had real plates ready. Floor mats and Self-Leveling Fixed Center Cap our on order.

Here are a couple pictures from this morning. Now off to rack some leaves.
