Week 3 build!

Froggi · 01-19-2017, 11:04 AM

My car also completed production yesterday!

jofus · 01-20-2017, 08:10 AM

Mine was born yesterday, too!

Volki_M2 · 01-20-2017, 09:47 AM

Mine too, I think...

Somebody can tell me, especially US costumers, if the date that appears in webs like bmwdecoder.com as "production date" is the date of the beginning of production or of the end of production?? Somebody can double check??

European costumers don't have your tracking tool...

End of production for me, Volki

TheBatM2 · 01-20-2017, 07:12 PM

I understand that the production week is the week of production completion.

Has anyone got an update on their vehicle status? My car is still waiting to be released to a carrier.

Just called today. Latest update from Genius is still waiting at port (build date was 1/16).

Hopefully good news when I call again on Monday.

SoonerFan10 · 01-30-2017, 03:24 PM

Called into Genius and it looks like it's expected to hit Galveston February 16th and its on Athens Highway.

AngryBaby · 01-30-2017, 04:05 PM

Orion Highway, arriving at port Feb 8th. Oh yeah!

jofus · 01-30-2017, 06:56 PM

Are either of you guys able to track these through the carrier? Canada's lack of tracking means that's my source of info, and my VIN still shows as not found when using the tracking feature.

Thanks. I meant are you able to track your VIN through the 2wglobal cargo ID field to find out which boat you are on, or did the Genius give you the boat info and you're using fleetmon to track the boat? Just wondering when the cargo id search field gets updated. Searching my VIN still shows no record found, but the guide said it usually doesn't show up until a few days after the boat has departed port.

That specific link is only for boats of the Wallenius and Wilhelmsen fleet. Mine's Kline, which I astutely deduced thanks to the huge, red/white "K" on the ship images coming up when I Googled my ship's name.

SoonerFan10 · 01-31-2017, 07:44 AM

Genius was able to give me the specific boat name and arrival and I was able to go the the cargo's website and confirm with what he said.

her02k · 01-31-2017, 10:27 AM

Build completion date 1/12 on the Independence 2 scheduled to arrive 2/8

Froggi · 02-01-2017, 05:34 PM

My M2 is currently on the Orion Highway around Portugal. Scheduled to arrive in port February 16th. Doing PCD March 15th.

I found out what ship and arrival date by just calling BMW Customer Relations with my Prod # and asking what ship my car was on. Then search for your ship on marinetraffic.com .

Same boat as myself, Froggi. Unfortunately, according to Fleetmon, arrival at Baltimore has been delayed by 3 days at this point. Frowny face. Not sure if/when they can make up time.

Go, ship, go!!

jofus · 02-04-2017, 09:15 AM

Was able to track my VIN and find the boat it's on since the BMW Canada line isn't much help. Currently in the North Sea and should be in Halifax on the 14th.

AngryBaby · 02-09-2017, 05:45 PM

Come on, ship...

I know I've been checking it just about every other hour the last couple days waiting for it to be on its way to Brunswick...

AngryBaby · 02-14-2017, 03:33 PM

On its way to Brunswick, scheduled for arrival 2/16 at 1400.

Woohoo!
