Was notified today that my F90 competition is placed on Stop Sale hold at Brunswick,GA port due to missing Sirius module. Arrived on 10/20. Told half cars in delivery center are on same status. Anyone have knowledge, experience w this?

[Rjtexas]

Update: it’s missing audio module. No estimated time to get part. Can’t leave delivery center at port without part.

Yeah there are tons of cars waiting at the port because of a stop sale. My car is waiting to install a part in the audio module receiver.

This is kind of the norm now.

[smbsocal]

There are a lot of cars waiting at port for the Receiver Audio Module (RAM).

I have been in the market for either a M550 and M5 for a couple months and there were a number of dealers that had cars that had been waiting at the port for this for a couple months. One dealer I spoke to had almost 30 cars sitting at port waiting for the RAM retrofit.

With all of the delays and shortages I wound up getting a used '21 M5 instead.

I was told my M5C would arrive at the VPC on Thursday and then would also have to wait for a missing audio module. It hope it's not a Sirius related module. I couldnt care less about that

Mine waited 6 weeks at port for this audio module. Simply a parts shortage. Only thing I can add is to make sure they have it listed as priority 1 meaning it's a sold car with a customer's name attached to it. But at this point, I think all cars are pre-sold especially M5's.

Same but not the same.

Our 2022 540i was just dispatched from the factory today. When I called last week, the car hadn't moved in 16 days, I asked the Genius if there was a possibility of a "stop sale" when the car arrived here at the Perf Center and was told "no, no stopsale, we would already know about that and it's not tagged as such.

:fingerscrossed:

Mine was scheduled for 10/28 at the VPC. That day the VIN info switched from open to closed on the receiver audio module issue in that BMW Recall Info Tool app. Got a call from my dealer the next day that it will be here next week. Hopefully it's as quickly resolved for the rest of you guys.

Just a tip. BMW genius doesn't know much. On Tuesday they told me my car is scheduled to arrive at the dealership on Friday. (Today).

I asked them what about the stop sale? They didn't know anything about the stop sale and reiterated that from what they can see, my car will be arriving at the dealership today. I don't have to tell you that of course that never happened and my car's stop sale is indeed still open. Btw you can check with your vin number on this link to see when the stop sale is closed.

My car has entered production but no progress for three weeks now. I entered the VIN and it has an open VIN status for retrofitting the receiver audio module. Car hasn't even been built yet. So I'm assuming this means they will build the car and ship it and it will sit at the port. Cool.

Yeah unfortunately that's what it means. Pretty much all 5 series have a stop sale and will sit at the port until it's closed.

When I use my VIN:

No open issues found



To be clear, our car just arrived at the port in Bremerhaven.

edit:

Well, just hours later, I do have a "defect code" of 0065600300.

Great!!

[scottie46]

mine has been at the port since 10/22. THe BMW Recall Tool link that was shared says i have "no recall - 0065480300 - Retrofitting the receiver audio module"

[docsybim]

I was just about to complain about the RAM issue but now it is closed. My car reached Brunswick on 11/1.

[adeuel]

Mine was 6 weeks held up back in May because it was shipped without the motion sensor keys.

Seems pretty normal right now.
Frustrating, but normal.
