How to track the car you have ordered?

[jonjon]

Hey guys, does anyone know what 'SGW Rebooking' on the VW ordering system mean? Does it refer to the date in which they first placed an order for your car? O

can anyone help?

Hey, i was wondering if you guys know why there is a 23 day gap between the contract date and SGW Rebooking date?

Those numbers are not in order. Check the dates and you'll see that things are happening in those 23 days.
I have no idea what SGW Rebooking actually is, but as you can see, it occurs on the same day as the handover to production.

I think it's pretty obvious why there is a delay in the contract date and handing over to production....

Hey hvc01, your production/delivery timeline looks almost the same as mine, but my contract date is 2weeks before yours. When did they provide you with a VIN? Because I didn't get mine until 2 weeks ago. From memory you mentioned that you got yours pretty early on. I asked them around early to mid April, but they kept saying they don't have a VIN yet. I reckon they have been screwing around with me.

Are people finding that most dealers are happy to provide a print out of an order from the NADCON system? I have asked my dealer a few times for this info (and the VIN no) but am yet to receive any info.

The few dealers in NSW / VIC I'd spoken to before placing our order had each said they would provide a printout once the order had been placed, as well as the VIN number so I could track it online.

My dealer did not want to provide me with VIN no the dealer avoided the question by saying "very soon here" when I asked about it... there must be a reason....but I see many ppl here have had theirs for a long time....

I've been tracking my gti which was due to dock in fremantle around the 25th may then onto melb around the 31st of this month but I've just checked the status and it says linear release melbourne on the 21st of may? Does this mean its already been to melbourne?

As far as I know, Liner Release just means they are expecting it to arrive. The Asian Dynasty has not been to Melb yet......

Hey jonjon,

Since the last printout of the NADCON system, some of the dates have changed. Everything has been pushed a week earlier and the arrival at port of shipment is now 10/06 (10 days earlier). To answer your question I got my VIN a few days after the car was built (it was built on the 21/04 and exited the production plant on the 23/04) with the dealer providing me with the VIN on that date.

Hope this helps...

btw... where did you get your car from?
