BMW breaks their production calendar year into build weeks, so the first week to include a date in January is week 1. The build week is the week the vehicle is scheduled to complete production and inspection. Week 22 is the last full week of May (if I’m counting right).

Big thanks to "nZtiZia", "E91toG05", and "x54MTbackroads". Thank you for dropping that bit of knowledge on me. Bless up.

I just spoke to bmw genius and my production week is week 22. He checked the code 032W and told me he does not see that option on my build.

Welcome week 22 brother. We are in the same boat.

I would say it is not valid. First of all it looks like Week 22 (which is MY22) doesn't have the delete code and secondly it is very doubtful that BMWNA has given dealers information on the MY23s yet.

No, Week 22 is May30th to June 5th. They use the standard ISO week calendar.

Thanks for the clarification and link.

45e just went into 150 status today. The build date is 5/24 and I'm still seeing 032w. Disappointed but not the worst thing

I have Q2 build coming. Sales rep said I will have the auto tailgate.

[statik210]

I was now informed that this code will take affect in either Q3 or Q4. Any build taking place around that time and moving forward will receive manual tailgates. This is the new rumor.

If would be pretty safe to ignore that rumor.

Have we seen pictures of the manual lower tailgate?

there's one dealer video floating around. it showed him pushing the button to unlock the lower tailgate then he manually lowered it. i believe if the vehicle has air suspension (45e), there's a second button to engage Load level

Hi all! Still new here. I spoke with someone on the genius team on May 10, 2022 and she said code (032W) isn't on my build. I asked if there were any other deletions and she said no, just the touch dial that's still missing, which is something I coudn't care less about. Build week is also 22; X5 45e M Sport. Hopefully, it all still stands. By the way, I'm also dealing with a dealership that doesn't know how to communicate with their clients. So any extra suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have a quick question, I tried using the F12 with Chrome and also the other way with Safari, and more than likely it's user error, but does it only work if you have a VIN or does it not matter? Because I can't seem to figure out the details once I'm in the screen and go to the appropriate subsections.

I spoke with a genius this morning and discovered my 45e build week is 23 (June 6-12), and they did not see any deletions or substitutions (e.g. tailgate). Hope this stands.

just spoke with BMW Genius and they confirmed that my build (5/24 wk 21) will have the manual lower tailgate. Seems like I missed out by just a few days.

You can do it before you get a VIN but the production date won’t be filled in until you do. There are a few threads that have the detailed instructions abs I will try a remember to post them when I get home tonight.

It's one button to open the tailgate. I saw it last weekend. Clicking on it unlatchesnit which opens the tailgate just a bit. Pulling it down isn't an issue. I found it a bit odd to put it back up because of the contours of the tailgate. There wasn't a grab bar or anything like that to help pull it up and as I started pushing it up my hand slid, so i needed to readjust. I didn't like it personally but it is what it is. There could be better ways of doing it but I didn't try.

Safari Instructions :

You can check the status with production number (status 111 - order received and 112- scheduled for production), when status changes to 150 - production begins - your car VIN is assigned and prod date is filled in when you do the f12 trick as shown in above link

This procedure worked for me the first time I tried it several weeks ago but has not worked since. When I click forward through the entries there are none that show the feature codes for my vehicle.

The site in general seems to work only intermittently using Safari. Often times I get a blank screen and when I go try to access it with Chrome it works. So, if anyone has Chrome instructions for how to access my build feature codes I'd love to see it!

I use chrome on a mac and the procedures are pretty much the same. Go to View -> Developer -> Developer Tools

Once in there, hit 'Network' then 'Fetch/XHR' and refresh the my garage page and find the right one from the list of the left side.
