Default New Q5 2014 tracking info

As the previous thread was appropriately closed, I thought I'll start a new one for those like me who are still waiting for their new Audi Q5s.

Thanks to the folks who replied to my query in the previous section. My dealer has not given me details yet but the ship with my Q5 is expected to reach Houston on 11/4. When I go to the Ro/Ro vw logistics page - it only has information about future ships. I expect that my ship is probably on the water somewhere. Can someone, who has been following their vehicles, tell me what ships are expected to dock in Houston on 11/4?

Thanks

May be Bangkok Highway. Thanks to Burgermeister for this link -http://info.poha.com/vtraffic/arrivals.html

According to this, Bangkok highway (last known port emden) is expected to dock in Houston on 11/4. Anyone else know more about this?

Thanks

I have a week 38 schedule and it shows Bangkok Highway docking in Brunswick on the 30th and Houston on 11/4.

Thanks for the posting, Xylar5 - PWL's weekly planner is indeed one of the best tracking tools.
For those still scheduling their ED adventure and wondering about the verbiage below the spreadsheet: besides some business-to-business administrivia, it notes the requirement that vehicles must reach Emden (VW's/Audi's loading port) at least three days prior to ETD. Finally, they reiterate the known restriction on leaving personal effects in the vehicle lest fines are levied and acceptance for shipment is denied.

CORRECTION: Maybe not the best tool since some dates obviously do slip ...

Thanks Xylar for the pdf.

It looks like my baby is on this ship. When I try to track it, its not available, but the last know position is North Atlantic, north of Scotland on 10/20. So hopefully its almost across the Atlantic, and will start showing up in the logs over the next day or 2.

Hoping it can get up to Minnesota in 3 days from Houston.

I would agree, but it has been right for a couple of different boats hitting ports right about now. I just hate that the updated schedules leave out some of the ships in transit.

Mark P gave us a good post on how to track the ships out in the void.

Here is the "current" position of the Bangkok Highway:

Default Delivered!

Got a call around lunchtime on Friday and had to scramble to get everything lined up for financing and trade and everything. Hectic, but it's in my hands now.





And a shot of the two TDIs...

That blue is a beautiful color! Any VCDS mods planned?
