Wouldn't be too concerned mate, I think your Audi doesn't get updated continuously. Last week mine was showing BW 30 and then it went to quality control status (a week earlier than expected) then today, I get the email attached as a pic saying its out the factory on its way, but youraudi is still showing as in quality control - I think they only update the system once or twice a week or something lolMy build week is this week starting today and the status on yourAudi is still 'Order Received' is this normal?

Hi everyone, new here!
I've just gone to Preparation stage and have a BW of 35, just wondering if this means it could be sooner?
Also could anyone explain all the steps in the tracking process and how long it takes between each one?
Hamilton in Scotland. Great dealer
Yes they are sure. The contacted admin yesterday and they said cars with matrix lights are now being allocated a build week. My hold up with it was because of the lights, my order hasnt been changedAre they 100% sure it's with the Lights? I've spoken to a few people at Audi and they have all said it's not possible at this time. I have even been shown an official email from 4 days ago stating that there was a further delay with no cars with Matrix Beam headlights specced being built until Quarter 4. My car with Matrix lights still does not have a build week.
Just be sure I would ask them to email you a screen print of the 'Vehicle detailed information screen' which should show you the options selected and the Build week in one place.

And all im saying is that my dealer says that spoke to audi admin and they are now putting them out with matrix. U say u spoke to them 4 dayd ago. I spoke to them yesterdayAll I know is Audi UK and My dealer have both stated that NO cars are being built with Matrix Lights.
I'm getting very frustrated now as I honestly do not know who or what to believe. Having said that though I would be wary of the online tracker as it does have a tendency to lie (not that I am saying it is) and would be doing all I can to double Check with my Dealer and Audi UK if I was you.
Out of curiosity which engine have you specced? **EDIT** Never mind I can see it's a 1.6 TDI

I have the same build date (and colour choice). Did your spec list show a 36 month subscription to Audi Infotainment System?Ordered more than a week ago, September can't come round soon enough! View attachment 98027

Got an email today saying my S3 has left Ingolstadt, fortunately my Audi dealership is Tyneside Audi, and the port of Tyne is one of the destinations for the cargo ship. I also sent a mail to the BDM asking that they dont prep the exterior of the car at all, strange request I know, but I want to detail it myself. When i picked my GTD from benfield a year ago and when i inspected the paint it was hologramed all over, which meant the first thing i did was spend quite a bit of time correcting it, something I am keen to avoid this time.
Doesn't sound strange at all - I was thinking of doing the same but decided against it, as if it's caked in dirt you could potentially miss scratches or dents etc which would be far more difficult to get them to resolve when you've taken on the liability of taking delivery of a dirty car and cleaning it yourself.
I'd rather take the job of correcting some defects in paint than having to go back to the dealer with proper damage to panels or paintwork and try and prove it wasn't me. But that's just in my opinion
Thats a good point, it be worth recinding my request, however i can see Tyneside Audi from my office window, and i have witnessed many times how they 'prep' cars which is to say; pressure wash it, give a tickle with the same dirty sponge and manky water, then macine polish it in under 10 mins (for the whole car). But i'd rather have the piece of mind i didnt damage the paint at all.
Just had a call from my dealer about the matrix lights. The factory is having problems with them and no cars are going out with them :-( so im removing them from my order.1 of us is being told the truth i just hope its you

I know me too but hey wasnt to be lolDamn sorry Karen I was hoping you get the car with Matrix lights.
Any joy yet fella?Notice on the ship trackers there are a couple of ships inbound to Grimsby and Sheerness from Emden. Hopefully the next wave of FL models to be hitting UK shores. *fingers crossed*
