Is this possible

So looks like next week or so my M50i will be built. Once it comes off assembly line and is dispatched would I be able to add it to the MyBMW app and track it's progress to the dealer with the location finder feature?

on the web site it will tell you what stage and if dealer received it. the app has to be activated by the dealer when you're on site to pickup. The car is not yours till you sign the papers, then the app will be active.

Ok thanks. The reason I asked is that I only downloaded the app last week and was able to add my 14 535. Maybe the dealer did something way back when to give me access even though I never used it....

There is an electronic services agreement that needs to be processed by the dealer tying the vehicle to you. Before that it is not possible to add a vehicle to the app or else anyone could just add a vehicle found on a dealer's lot using the VIN.

Makes sense. They must have done that when I got my car back in 2014, I just don't recall them ever doing it or even mentioning it to me at the time. Although I am not a great listener so who knows....
