The flip side is I think we're better off having the pumps replaced at the VPC by BMW technicians (as opposed to the dealer's technicians). It may be splitting hairs, but I feel like with the technicians at the VPC doing the work we have a lesser chance of a mistake and higher accountability to BMW.

Looks like the cars are off the boat? I tracked mine on the WW website and here is what was returned. Not sure what this means below. It went from a "customs release" to a "liner release".

i think when it clears customs you will see a "1" in the status quantity column next to it. i did a search and that was the consensus from others that have seen this during there redelivery.

So here is the update that I see on their website. Does this mean it has cleared customs?

Again, all this is just my guess. But I think there is less than a 1% chance that the "Discharged" or "Delivered from" entries that popped up today mean the car has cleared customs - way too quick for that to happen from what I've heard about the process. But hey, you never know.

Ok, now that a bunch of our ED cars are at the VDC, I'm thinking the first oil pumps coming over will be delivered there (on 10/1, according to the latest 9/28 info). Given it is a 2-3 hour job, with a couple of days of buffer for pump delivery and install, would it not be unreasonable to have at least some of our cars, like the Ohio group, loaded up by the end of the week with deliveries in the week of Oct 8th?

Nope. The Delivered from means it was delivered from the boat to the customs area. Likely still in customs.

Any of you Ohio guys thinking of trying to make the DE at MidOhio on Oct 19-21? Could be close, given the need for more break-in time and servicing....I need to get in 700 miles before servicing.
