Sadly quiet on this thread. I guess we have all resigned ourselves to another long wait. Seems like the Panamera allocations were the earliest in the group but now production is halted so they’re not moving either. Don’t even have a reason to hound my SA anymore!
Been looking at CPOs but can’t justify it. I feel like I would end up getting half at best when I trade in… Plus I am holding out ridiculous hope that it might not be quite that long…

I sold my S560 daily once my TTS was on the boat. Not a good move, in hindsight. My new delivery date on TYD is 7/29/22. Not going to be happy getting a MY22 at the end of July.

I am 100% with you on the model year issue. Few people are addressing this. My rebuild delivery date is 7/22. I didn’t sign up for an essentially one year old vehicle. Model year changeovers usually start in August…. We should be given a choice…. Maybe 60 days later for a ‘23? Something to that effect…

I think the situation is quite bad. Over in Audiland, they have had to shut down all of Neckarsulm and 2/3 of Ingostadt due to the wire harness issue for 2 solid weeks, at least. Basically all the MLB platform cars impacted, which is huge volume. How long for wire harness suppliers to re-tool production at another site and start flowing materials? I'm guessing it's not 2 weeks, but more like month at least if you think about what's involved. And that's just that one particular issue.

Over on Audi formum we are discussing how long it really is going to take to get wire harnesses made in an other location. Figures like one month vs. 3 months are being batted around. I can't tell whether that's real information from trade press or just informed speculation. ONe things for sure, Audi's entire B chassis lines in Germany are current at total stop for the next few weeks at least.

That is dreaming. We had months of delays due to far more benign hiccups than factories completely shutting down. Its going to take weeks just to hire people and train them. Its basic mathematics. If Leoni has 4 factories of which 2 were lost in Ukraine, there is no way the other 2 can ramp up production to keep up with the demand without hiring additional staff. Factories produce X amount using Y number of staff. You cant go to 2X without 2Y in the same amount of time.
