Amu3ed, I ordered my car mid September and picked it up on October 15. I just looked at my sticker. HP and battery capacity are nowhere to be found. Neither are the safety ratings which I find odd.
I did receive two stickers though so I will check the other one after work. |

Seems to show a few different numbers but about 385-394hp combined with the gas engine accounting for only 282hp (which is what the BMW website shows).

I'm quite sure no manufacturer puts horsepower on a window sticker in case someone actually goes to a dynamometer and then a lawyer!

I logged in to BMWUSA.com and was able to access all of the owner's manuals and other info about the 45e just 2 minutes ago. I would add a screenshot but this forum doesn't let me cut and paste pix in to posts for some reason.
The owner's manual available currently appears to be the exact same revision as the one I downloaded 2 weeks ago: 01405A10FF0 |

The US is BMW's second biggest market worldwide. I seriously doubt they are pulling out of the US market. Having some tech spec docs for the 45e removed from their website is a sign BMW is pulling out of the US? Kind of a leap, don't you think?? |

Spoke to my dealer here in Cyprus. They are expecting the testing software to be ready by the end of this month.
The testing itself will be done remotely from Germany. Local technician's role is just to connect the cars being tested. |

Apologies in case I missed something - I thought that jumping straight to conclusions in the absence of complete and perfect information was the main purpose of this thread.
But seriously: Why else would they try to cover their tracks? |

The point is, in the NA market, BMW has taken the specs, features, and manuals offline for undelivered 45e's implying platform changes are coming which usually doesn't mean for the better IME w/ BMW. |

Thanks for getting back to the original topic of this thread. Has your dealer in Cyprus given any rough estimate as to when Munich expects this testing process to be completed?

There are only 3 cars to be tested here as far as I know of so it should not take too much time provided that the testing SW and procedure are ready soon enough. |

Member from Norway here. Hi everyone. I was supposed to pick up my X5 two weeks ago. It is on hold due to the current potential battery issue. My production week was last week July. Currently I have no further information to share other than what have been shared already. To say the least I am overdue on waiting for the car. The wait might have been easier if it was a bit more predictive on when I could expect the car delivered. Currently I feel that those in the same situation like me are very much in the dark. I guess if someone told me mid December I could probably accept that and prepare myself for the wait. The actual situation of not knowing anything is painful.
My current thoughts on the fix to the issue is that a test software is being made at the moment, then this software will monitor a controlled stress charge to the batteries and if the car is within certain parameters then its cleared. Swap battery packs with new ones is likely not even an alternative as the costs to do so for BMW together with availability and logistics are likely not any sustainable solution so it need a procedure to check every car for faults instead. This is just my theory and nowhere confirmed by anyone. Great if anyone that would receive any information from their local dealer around the issue would be willing to share this information here so we all can learn and understand on how this will be tackled in the end. |

As for a time line: as stated above with a not too insignificant number of vehicles potentially affected and to be tested, this will take quite a few weeks imho |

I have an October build 45e that is still in transit from the factory to the dealer and I can see the manual using my vin. The vin number you have tried must be for a car that was built on or before 9/23 and thus part of the stop sale...

You can still build a 45e on the US configurator, but "View Standard Features" appears to be missing in action....

Is in transit. No warning codes at the moment. Think new orders are unaffected and newly produced cars. |
