I hate to spam the thread but it's been 2 weeks sitting at the port in Germany now. This seems very unusual based on the other posts I've seen. Should I be concerned?

My 530e sat at the port for 4 days as it left Friday from Germany. I am on the East Coast. A West Coast ship had left on Tuesday from another thread I was reading. But the west coast gets fewer ships so if you are on the West Coast you might be going out on the next one. Also, the ship I'm on left on Friday, but was being loaded on Thursday. It took until today for my tracking information to update to In Transit. My data tracking thread: https://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1649123 |

How were you able to get the ship name? I've called the Genius line twice in the past couple of weeks and both times they tell me they can no longer give out detailed information and direct me to the automated line (the one where the recorded voice asks "is that a production number or a partial VIN") and that line has very little detail.
Is there another phone number I haven't come across? |

I will say, most of the ship tracking is done with shore based AIS, so when you track the ship, you won't see much updates on the crossing of the atlantic. I would rely on the estimate arrival time from the marine tracking sites. Otherwise you have to pay for SAT tracking. |

Almost, mine should be at the port already, but no status update yet. I think there's a ship scheduled for west coast in one or two days, hopefully my car will make it on this one.

Mine was just dispatched from factory today so I'm also hoping it gets to the port in a day or 2.

Production Finished on 13/06
However, 'Certificate of Conformity from Factory' that came with Car, is dated 30/07 (therefore, I have no idea what the car was doing in Munich for 6 weeks!!) It missed the ship that sailed on 31/07 hence was on the next one and eventually arrived early September. Finally got it on 06/09, 20 weeks from order; 12 weeks from production |

Car's been at the port since 9-13. MyBMW garage shows it's been 'in transit' since mid last week. Called BMWNA today to see what ship it's on. They say they have live information and that the car still shows as 'at the port.' They don't know why the website says it's in transit. Has anyone else had a discrepancy like that? If so, was it indeed BMWNA that was more accurate?
Will check with my CA, but he probably has the same info as BMWNA I would guess. |

My car is still at the port. Just checked the Wallenius Wilhelmsen schedule, and it looks like the vessel Themis will be at the Bremerhaven Port on 9/25 and it will be going to the west coast. It should arrive at Port Hueneme by 10/22. I suspect that this is the ship that my car will be on.
