That's great news that you will get it back this week! Hopefully they found the cure for your car's A/C ailment...

I was just there this past weekend. If its anything like it was its going to be packed. I won't be able to make it however as i have plans for that day, but if any of you guys do go i highly recommend getting lunch at La Costanera right next door. Fantastic Peruvian food and was introduced to us by some friends from Peru who said this is the best Peruvian food they've had in the states.

Any idea on how to track this down? I’m traveling for 2 weeks in April and again in May and my current delivery of 4/2 seems unlikely…

it used to be possible to find the ships schedules online which would give a good indication of cars departure and arrival dates at Port of Entry ... PWL is the shipping line ...or actually Volkswagen konzernlogistik gmbh but I looked and could not find the .pdfs online...

Glovis does most of the west coast routes. Choose the ‘Americas’ link on this page.

*sigh* looks like this repair is taking longer than expected and so i'll be another week without my car. I really hope this gets fixed. At this point it feels like i'm paying for something i don't even have and it feels bad.

Damn! Sorry this is happening to you. Once you get it back you’ll forget about it.

Btw, pretty sure we spoke way back in the M2 Forum but don’t think we’ve ever met.

We did for sure, I actually went back to that forum to check and sure enough we talked briefly.

Im in a GT4, traded my M2C back in 2020 when it was plentiful sitting at dealers.
