My TYD updated from a mid April delivery to mid May now. Been sitting on production for a while now. Was meant to be completed 1/29 then 2/19 and now 3/13.

I have a 718 on order. WTF? Did they put in some weird blanket delay into all cars on TYD?

@7382929296 did you get your car on Mon, as they promised? I haven't heard of any others being repaired and released.

Monday pushed to Friday and now pushed to 3/29, but should “expect” mid March.

At this point I’m not believing anything unless I get a TYD update telling me it’s left the port.

Bummer, bummer, but in line with everyone else as far as I can tell.

Agreed, had my doubts. Personally if I had to guess, I’m thinking March 12 - 21 is when cars will start rolling out.

My 718 shows up in the system as "Port Handling - Quality Action", which in my past has meant that they need to fix something at the local port, either from the factory or as a result of shipping damage. I had a Taycan wait 9 months for a "quality action", but also a GT3 wait less than a week with the same code. The dealership can't generally learn anything about it, so it's a wait-and-see.

Now that’s a bit concerning considering yours should be a chip related issue.

For those waiting for April delivery dates, here’s the Week 9 Stena Glovis schedule that was published this Monday. Unfortunately, no change from last week and Benicia is still unconfirmed (!). I was hoping Benicia would be decided by this week but ** sigh ** it appears we need to wait another week.

In addition to Glovis and VW Konzernlogistik, is there a third shipping line that VW Autogroup uses??

Not that I was ever able to find firm evidence for. NYK runs some ships from Emden to SD, but it doesn't look like VW Group uses those.

April 5 (Companion ship) for San Diego shows confirmed as of now but the SD April 7 (Cosmos) is tentative since it still shows blue with the "dependent upon volume situation" footnote. Selfishly speaking, if Benicia ends up getting scratched from Companion's route, I hope Glovis will schedule Cosmos to skip San Diego and go to Benicia instead.

( Companion is currently sailing north off the coast of Spain / France and heading to UK while Cosmos is sailing north off northern Africa towards Europe. )

Anyone else get the email from PCNA about cars starting to ship this week to dealers?
