Congrats! Mine got through production in a week but stuck at port for three weeks now. Maybe ours will be on the same ship lmao
Ugh. 3 weeks? Maybe we'll all be on the same ship

Have my 2000 km post break-in service booked for this coming Wednesday. Can't wait to get the conservatorship phase removed!

I think so, but I wouldn't be shocked if they put all the Canadian cars on one ship and used rail cross country or something. Shipping traffic is messed up as part of the supply chain issues (not due to parts shortage, but rather backlog).

Out of curiosity, from whom does everyone get their updates; your SA or BMW CA? So far I've only had contact with my SA but it would be nice to get updates from another source so I don't have to keep bugging the same person.

BMW Canada until the car reaches Bremerhaven port. Then it is considered inventory of the dealership and can only tracked by your sales advisor.

If you feel bad, I'm harassing the same dealership at least once a week, too.

hopefully in time for my next car order in ~5years

Glad to see that I'm not the only one. I asked for my first update 1 month after order. Next was 2 weeks. Last was 1 week. Now I'm waiting for 7 days to hit so I can ask again

Place order as in start waiting for allocation or actually placing an order?

No allocation I suspect at least 6-7 months?
With allocation I guess 4.5-5 months as I am experiencing.

My car arrived in Halifax on Aug 20th and got to the dealer Sept 9th. I took delivery on the 11th.

Thankfully there were no holds.

Mine was supposed to be September production but it was pushed back to October. Late November is the best case scenario for me. I've gone ahead and ordered winter tires in anticipation of delivery during a snowfall lol.

I got my winters as well. I have the same train of thought as you. My backup plan is to borrow my in-laws XT5 should it snow and I don't have the car. Problem is their all season are shot and going to have to make a decision to change those as well.

For winters I went with 19" opti wheels with Nokian Hakkas R3's

At least you have a contingency, so you'll still have something to drive.
I was hoping to be able to trade in my X3M without having to switch to winters but there goes that plan!
I'm probably the only crazy one on this whole forum by using the OEM staggered wheels and just swapping rubber. I ordered Michelin Alpin 4 for the 19/20" setup.

Did you confirm if your incoming M3 was affected? It falls within the build date range of the service bulletin, no?

My M3 was built on Sept 16 so definitely yes according to the sheet. However I can only see the RAM stop-sale on the UK site. Maybe I lucked out?

My 2022 M4 xDrive was Aug allocation with Week 31 build and its Week 40 soon and the car is still stuck in status 155 which I believe is QC stage for more than 5 weeks now. Have you guys heard of any car staying in QC stage for this long?

I have also checked my VIN with UK site and thank god it doesnt have the bearing recall but it does have RAM and Cam stopsale codes. Thing is the car has not even dispatched from factory yet after finishing assemblying it for 5 weeks. Who knows when I will receive the car sigh..

Sort of in the same boat. Only thing I know is there is a huge backlog at Bremerhaven and my car was stuck at the port since September 19. Luckily no bearing issue but has the RAM stop-sale
