Patience is the key to success.

Says me, who checked this weekend a gazillion times to see if there is any change in the production date using the F12 trick.

I guess I missed it, when did they change the Canadian BMW site so the "F12" process and BimmerTrack worked? That has never been the case in the past. Are you sure that it is supposed to show the data?

Not sure…. I tried it and some info is showing up. For MY24 X5, the F12 didn’t work at all. However, this time I am seeing some information 🤷🏻*♀️

My guess is that it is still not working because they use different data structures than BMWNA.

Question: Do they drill holes in the front bumper at the PCD for the front license plate? Because I forgot to mention that I don't want any holes drilled to the dealer.

There is no drilling for attaching the plate, it is just screwed in. The result though would be the same since holes are there if it is removed.

That is a good question. I always assumed they don't put the front plate holder on no matter what state the vehicle will go to but can not verify that. I suggest you contact PCD directly and ask and let them now you don't want it if they do. If you can let us know what they say that would be great.

I was referring to the plate holder holes. I will keep you guys posted regarding this one.

Just got an update from Genius, too. The car is estimated to be completed on May 15th, although the F12 trick still shows May 16th.

P.S. This was my first call from today, after checking online for 6-7 times, lol.

Great news! Mine locked into 112 earlier than I thought based on the week 29 production week.. I wonder whether it’s an end of production thing… still about 9 weeks before production currently. UK doesn’t have the F12 process to make production dates visible sadly..

I got encouraged by you since you got an update, and that is why I also called. Otherwise, I would have continued pressing F12 today.

I hoped to get my car 50E today but dealer pushed it to tomorrow. There is a stop sale order that requires a software update. I don't think it's a big deal but don't know what it is.
