Thanks to member gclabbe who created the original tracking information reporting system in 2010 and the recent thread by Trinitony in which he has been manually gathering data, we now have a new form-based system that we can use to enter our redelivery results.

Please enter your results here.

Before I picked up my ED, I could go to mybmw and see car status. I came home, logged in, linked in my BMW financial services account and that information is no longer there. Is there someplace on the BMW website where i can track my car status? It seems obvious, but I can't find anything. What am I missing?
 
#59 ·
I am having the same problem. I haven't seen the tracking info since we went to Germany. Also, the tracking info on W&W only goes as far as "Discharged". It doesn't show that it cleared customs or anything else.

I called BMW and they said that it was in the VPC on the 18th and booked for transport to the PCD on the 23rd. It is being delivered to the PCD on the July 5th and we are picking it up from the PCD on July 14th.

As soon as you link your account to financial services you loose tracking of your car. BMW should put a disclaimer. Don't worry, calling and talking to ED agent is more accurate. My car was released from VDC and customs last week and the web site still shows in transit. I even got already an e-mail with pick up date from PCD.

Summary sheet in place ... 313 entries now!

My experience was that BMW was a little behind on updating the first few days, then pretty much gave up ... maybe it was BMW Financial as suggested.

Sort of why the survey got kicked off. I was curious how long it would normally take :)

For answers, we now have a huge number of gathered entries imported from the manual survey that was being run. I also added an optional question for ship name since that seems to be a cool idea.

I've setup a first summary sheet that should keep updating itself in real time ... at least until we get around 1300 entries ... then I don't know what will happen if I have to do anything.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...-a2PdGVMVvUCz3_nvq88OeMTI/edit#gid=1525060789

I'm going to add some other charts in there as well, but my experience is that these charts do not update themselves in gDocs.

John, maybe you can pull that summary link to the front of the post???

Nice job Chris! I like this format much better than the format of the 2009/10 survey. It's much easier to read.

Lots of good information. Should allow future analysts to slice it and dice it to show whatever is of interest at the time.

Would EDers mind if their name was linked to an entry? It would be easier for us (the "inputter") to tell if we made an error in entering our information - because if there were an error it would be difficult to be sure that you are looking at your particular entry.

OK.

I put in an optional field for Bimmerfest ID.

Unfortunately it will be on the far right of collected data ... that's just how Google rolls. Row P to be exact.

I'll try to input the userID information we have from the manual survey. The previous 09/10 survey did not collect userID.

With some extra time, I'll restart the whole survey so the columns match the order entry, but for now just have to live with it.

As it currently exists, sharing is for public viewing but not edit. I can change this to "public edit with link" ... then you could update. Otherwise, you will have to send me a request to add you as an editor or send me the required update information.

I'll make a specific sheet for SC w/wo PCD ... there are not many SC wo PCD, though.

OK

Not all PCD end up in SC

But given the combined data I had to make some assumptions for statehood of redelivery for those PCD's. Over time the data will fix itself.

For now, we have at least 7 records that are SC w/ blank for PCD

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...-a2PdGVMVvUCz3_nvq88OeMTI/edit#gid=1262706673

What other views of the data do you want to see? PM might be better so this thread doesn't get even more fractured :)

I hope I don't have any scratches.

I just put my data in. Although my CA told me that most likely they would get the car next Sunday, I took my chances and went to dealership this evening. Guess what... My car was there on the driveway. I guess they unloaded the truck today.

My timeline:
06/04 Drop off Munich
07/06 Brunswick
07/13 At dealer - Munich

Nice! My car seems to be lost considering ED Dept. told me it would be at the dealer earlier this week, yet it still hasn't gotten there. Now I am getting worried.

Enjoy your car back at home!

ETA: ED just said the trucking company put in a new estimated delivery date of today. Will see if that holds this time.

Our car was also on the Carmen after drop off in Nice on June 9th. I just checked the W2 website, and the car cleared customs. I can't wait, as I have some carbon fiber parts, painted reflectors and custom floor mats from iND waiting at home.

It spent quite a long time in VDC. It arrived at dealership yesterday (8/7). I'm picking it up tomorrow. A lot of time wasted from drop off. BTW, the dates are off. On 6/23, drop-off site told me that car was already at port, but tracking said port received the car on 6/29.
