Current PCD timeline from US port arrival
Given the restart of PCD for European mate BMWs and the changes to PCD (I.e. no free accommodation), what’s the average time to schedule PCD after your vehicle work order is closed at the VPC . The most recent data point I could reference was 25days in between. I want to believe that has changed, by the way I placed my PCD request the day my car entered 150, so very early on. Anyone have any new experience since the restart or any new data points? Thank you!!

I'm seriously considering PCD.
Especially since the place where I got the allocation is over five hours away, so PCD for an additional six hours of driving. The flight is nothing, and the hotel will be easy since I'm Titanium at Marriott.

From what I understand, the recommended Marriott offers a shuttle.

One extra hour of driving time? Definitely do it, it’ll be worth it.

Really? Can anyone confirm this? I thought you cannot request PCD until it gets to 150, my CA told me it’s until you get to 151

The trip from PCD to Austin is about 16hrs. If I'm going to torture myself, I think I'd rather have a story to tell afterward.

I told my CA to put in the request at 150, and he said he did but now he is telling me he just requested it again at 193. How does the priority work? He is saying the date scheduling depends on when your car clears VPC not when you put in the request. |

So my thing is how is your spot “reserved” if they have to assign a date after you get out of VPC? Like if I cleared VPC before you but I only booked at 193, will they assign your date before mine?

Apparently there are 40+ EU produced cars sitting at PCD waiting for customers to pick up. Add to this all the X models that get PCD as well. Basically he told me it's a clusterf*ck and if you somehow got the PCD confirmation you are hella lucky. Take with a grain of salt as he mightve just submitted my request in late and is running me in circles because I got screwed. :/ |

latest bulletin (upon resumption of PCD for vehicles not built in Spartanburg) is that the request must be received and processed prior to vehicle reaching Status 151

Used to drive to CA all the time.
I was an animal back then… didn’t stop for anything except gas and snacks.
