I have ordered/received my New Tiguan

both orders contain the r-line pack? That could be the difference

Yep. Mines an R-Line as well.

And sunroof - I have read somewhere that the sunroof can cause delays

No. No sunroof on mine.

However there is plenty of anecdotal evidence here of others taking delivery of their sunroof equipped R-Lines to make me think that can't be the issue.

Yes that is my thinking too. The sales manager mentioned R-Line is causing delay and no mention of sunroof. I'm actively chasing for my NADCON screen shot now. Hopefully I'll get it soon.

Keep chasing it, I got mine eventually and I'm cancelling my order as a result with one dealership as they'd stated a late July delivery from the start and then it changed to early September once I had the screenshot in hand, they mentioned that was worse case scenario but thanks to Eyes24 signed up with another dealership with a slightly better deal and a confirmed early July delivery, car is being built week 16 so win/win. With the initial purchase, made sure I had a delivery within x months clause which they can't do so won't cost me a cent cancelling.

It may look like only the sales manager will have access to the NADCON. I've been asking my dealer for months and he even started ignoring my emails. I had to email the general enquiry email address to finally get a NADCON print out from the sales manager.

I signed in Oct-16 and now been given a date of the end of July!

Does anyone know what
"SGW Rebooking" is?

My dates had a 3 months gap! What the heck?!!!
SGW Rebooking 13/12/16
Current SGW Determination 18/03/17.

SGW rebooking and SGW determination are the 6th and 7th steps in the process of taking your car from order to delivery. There are about 25 steps the fist being a signed contract with the dealer, then to VWA and so on. I don't know what SGW stands for but the next step but 1 is to hand the car to production in Germany. You can't be far from having a build week allocated. Once you know that then rule of thumb add 12 weeks for delivery to you.

step 10 is your body being built, step 13/14 is the paint job step 14/15 is final assembly and QC.

so if SGW determination is 18/3 your car is probably being built about now(ish). As I understand the car actually takes about a week to build from a sheet of metal to coming out the factory.

so say your car is built around April 1 therefore next week add 12 weeks and it takes you to around July 1.

i think that info is pretty much correct in a rule of thumb sort of way. Hope it helps.

My cancelled order had SGW determination of 18/3. It was scheduled to be handed over to production 27/5 and exit production 27/6, so it's possible it may be some time yet...

SGW rebooking was 15/3 for what it's worth...

That's quite a gap.....close to 8 weeks. Seems to suggest that they can't get all the parts together. Sunroof availability has been a reported issue (not sure if that is correct or not) but as I understand things SGW determination is about confirming the car can actuallly be built - that they have all/or will have all the parts required to meet each cars specification.

fortunately my dealer was able to provide info to us as it happened. Ordered 30/8 we had a build week by the beginning of October, a ViIN before the middle of November and a date of shipment along with the boats details on November 30. Car left Germany on a December 1 and was delivered on Jan 20 something (after Australia Day) exactly as promised.

clearly a different experience for those suffering very long lead times or delays.

Ordered tig 162 r-line with DAP & sunroof last week - it was the last one for delivery this year according to dealer with supply chain reports indicating no more available until 2018. Anyone heard otherwise or similar?
