According the dealer system mine is already built, due on December 15th!

I'm trying to find out what I can, and they're hoping it will arrive any day now!

Mine's allegedly the same as yours, according to the dealer (week 48) however the dealers communications are few and far between so I'm not holding my breath yet.

haven't even got an invite to the launch yet!!

Cool spec mate. I thought cars with the comfort access system have been delayed??? Mine was put back by one week because I had it on my spec.

Mine was delayed, I was supposed to be 1st (for launch), but would rather wait for it.

Oh ok. So that mean's it's a longer process maybe in installing it on the car to prevent any future problems.

Will hopefully have some news on mine on Sunday. Currently am in no hurry as quite happy getting the train to work ! Am I the only one who is not counting the days and minutes ?!
I guess once I've seen one on Saturday I'll be a little more anxious..........

So I've heard mine is built, was built in the 13th, but it's delayed/being held back for some reason.



And I know I'm not alone either.

That doesn't sound good

Do you think its Comfort Access related?

No idea, not likely as it's already built but waiting for "something" apparently.

Suppose I should post in here too. Apparently the common issue appears to be a "short wire" on some cars, in the steering column. When pulled this can result in the electronic steering wheel lock being disabled, along with the ignition system! So many hundred cars (apparently) are being held back to be fixed.
