M5 sitting at port for 6 weeks and counting
Sup!
I'm going on 6 weeks of my car sitting at Port Hueneme in Oxnard, CA with a RAM stop sale - got there on 12/04. I've been told that because my car is equipped with Bowers & Wilkins sounds system, the chip / part needed is harder to come by so the wait is longer. On a few different threads I've seen maybe 2 other members wait as long as I have. Just wanted to see if there's anyone else out there in the same situation. |

Yea look at the thread called RAM Resolution Time. It's about this issue and a mix of people waiting different lengths of time so far and a few with B&W in the mix. I'm at 3.5 weeks myself. It's been snow and shitty weather here so I'm kind of glad it didn't come last week for example.

It's funny how different ports have different times... my first car was done in 2 weeks at port Charleston, port jersey has been quick according to friends, and there are some of you guys that are just waiting and waiting... just out if curiosity, do you have any MPP parts added? Like what are the chances they're just putting off your car while waiting for those parts to arrive???

I hope yours comes soon. I'm 3 weeks stuck at the port of exit in Germany.
So far 3 ships have left with an itinerary that include NJ/ NY, but I doesn't seem like I'm in any of them. Genius and the dealer have no insight and I don't see anything listed in the recall link (yet). |

I would try to find out other cars that went to Baltimore and how long they stayed and other people that arrived after you. I mean you can't be one of the only 2-3 people with a car that went to baltimore...
