I received an email today with my Vin code. Finally i have it.
Bmw has one month delay in production of my x4. That means instead of a delivery within the next 2 weeks, i need to wait last week of september. Of course i tested the vin code on bmw archiv, on bmwusa and on the owner's guide app. It did not worked. I probably need to wait until next week. Last edited by SANK_CH; 08-01-2014 at 05:02 AM.. |

I wonder if any of you used/tried the "my bmw remote" app to track his car from the production plant up to dealer? |

You was right. They reuse the VIN code of older 5 series for the X4. Using my VIN code "-X" value allowed me to see yesterday which was the latest X4 35i that was build yesterday. it showed as well how many X4 had to be build before mine. What I did not knew is that they produce 7 days on 7 days. |

A question to those who have the snap in adapter. I assume the snap in adapter is the same part what ever you drive an X3 (F25) or an X4. I own a Samsung galaxy S3, and not sure if I will trade it for a Galaxy S5. Is it the same snap in for the Galaxy S3 and the S5?
thx for your replies. |

Yes the owner's guide for the X4 has been published online beginning of this week. Only in German. Here it is If you have your VIN code, you can also download the Owner's guide, using IOs and Androids app BMW owner's guide. Last edited by SANK_CH; 08-08-2014 at 02:41 AM.. |

My car has been built : dance::happyan im:
I m now waiting to see the car appearing on bmwusa.com in order to know when it will leave factory. Thx to some good posts on "how to track your car", I already understood that the car will be shipped by train to Charleston Harbour. Then take from there a Vessel to Bremmerhaven in Germany. I already noticed 4 Vessels managed by Wallenius Wihelmsen Logistics, that could carry my car to Europe. Vessel Trip ID Lloyd’s ID Departure Arrival Name Charleston Bremerhaven ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MANON UA430-MAN 9179725 14.08.14 25.08.14 INDEPENDANCE II UA431-INC 9070448 19.08.14 01.09.14 FREEDOM UB421-FRE 9129706 25.08.14 14.09.14 DON JUAN UA432-DOJ 9082934 26.08.14 08.09.14 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Then it's about 2 weeks from Bremmerhaven to Switzerland. Snapin adapter for Samsung Galaxy S3 and for S5 are not the same parts. So no possibility to buy a snapin for my actual Galaxy S3 and then buy a new Galaxy S5 without changing the snapin. And still waiting for some information from my dealer about MPPK for the X4 35i. If it will have 240kw or 250kw (like on 3/4 series). 340hp on the X4 3.5i that would be awesome, and close the mouth of some Macan S drivers... |

I won't be able to track my car on bmwusa. there is a system limitation that allows only tracking car for US market. As my Vin code indicate that the car is for european market, the system informs it can't find any result.
Will check the tracking system of the vessel compagny. |

SANK CH: Sorry if I was a bit confusing. You asked in a previous message if you were to get the 240/250 kw engine -about 340 bhp. You will not, but the 306 bhp engine.
I was a bit worried of that, but drove a X3 with the 306bhp, and the 8-speed. You always have the best possible torque/bhp, so it is impressive. In the manual you supplied the other day, there is instructions how to use the Launch Control- if being challenged at a red light |

So if I understand it correctly, European cars can not be tracked? We need to get the info from the dealer then.....
Ordered my X4 3D Msport Carbon black etc, the 16th July. Dealership says I'll have the car by October 30th. With all your experience now, is End October realistic (I hope so!) what is happening between 15/7 and 30/10? How long is production - shipment? Somebody knows when production for this type starts or should start? Man, the waiting is killing me, so long....... Have had several 3's and 5's, still have a 1 (2012) and a X3 (2007), so I know what I can expect, but that is not making the waiting any easier..... Luckily I already got a German manual from Sank_CH, thanks again man! |

Jypsie: You will probably get your vehicle oct 30 + or - one week.
When the dealer ordered the vehicle, he got a confirmation of planned week of assembly. Then BMW add 10 weeks (at least to Sweden) and give the dealer the planned date of arrival to the dealer. There is some slack (margin) in the estimate, for extra time in assembly/ adjustments/ transport etc. My car: Carbon Black, 35i, Msport, 20" is supposed to arrive Trollhattan next week- it has been a looong wait |
