Working again

So luckily / unluckily for you all (depending on your outlook) you'll be seeing a lot more of me again for the next two weeks as I've got some time off work LOL.

Here to help as always - and hope we can get some inside info on any movement towards delivery for us all in the next couple of weeks

Thanks Jon, this is the post I was using to get my information.

@davkd there does seem to be some cars like yours and @portlandg and @SteveUk which are not showing any updates on ETIS or F12 network xhr method. God knows why, but as Grahame has had it confirmed via his dealer that his car has gone through QA I wouldn't worry too much if no updates are showing for yours.

My car is being built today, according to my dealer and the tracking has turned to in production (it changed Friday) not sure how long before it will actually be on any form of ship tho.

Fingers crossed for you. Next 2 ships scheduled to leave are MSC IMMACOLATA (9/5) and Grande New Jersey (17/5). Hopefully your car will be on one of those. The only issue could be the microchip shortage may cause a delay, but I did hear that Ford were diverting chips from other production lines to keep the MME going

Brilliant, thanks for your help as always! Let’s hope 9/5 fingers crossed!

Call me a cynic (you're a cynic!) but I would take anything your dealer says with a pinch of salt. Mine has to go to his boss for a Vista update which is at least a week behind where we are with ETIS or F12 data.

It's in the nature of a car salesman to say exactly what he or she thinks you want to hear.

 

[jongodfrey]

I’ve just checked your ETIS for you and still showing 08-12-2020

It's probably another 1 week lag for Ford system updates.

Thanks but how can you get on when I can't. You using one of those back door thingymagibs.

It should just be a VIN enter as per the original post.... but you have a special VIN perhaps. You need to click on "View PTI Information" and expand the section "PTI related Electronic Control Units Installed on this VIN" to see the software module dates.

At least yours responds - mine has decided to go quiet whenever I ask him to confirm the status of the £3k grant!! I've asked for confirmation twice now and no response, despite other emails from him inviting me to test drive!

 

[SteveUk]

Well, mine is still showing 27-11-2020 so it would appear mine has not gone through QA checks yet?

What's puzzling is that our dealer (I wont mention names) checked mine on Vista and thought mine had done the QC but when I check those dates like you, it's now showing.

You should be able to get a confirmation for this from Hannah and the concierge. [email protected]

You're a cynic ?. I make sure my dealer sends me a print of my vista update so I know he is not spinning me a line.

Yes I've seen messages from the concierge, so I'm not worried about actually getting it - it would just be nice to see my dealer informed enough to be able to confirm it themselves - too much to ask I guess!

I can see from the Grimaldi site that my vehicle was deposited in Antwerp from the Grande Florida on Friday (23/4). Shame my dealer couldn't share such information! I'm guessing it will be 2-3 weeks now to go through QA process (mine was a 2nd Dec build), then I can use the ETIS and F12 data to see when that's done.

That is exactly what I did. I have used the etis website before. You used to be able to input your VIN and get a full spec breakdown of what you had ordered but that stopped 3 or 4 years ago. It is also good to keep up to date on recalls. They usually appear on there before your dealer gets them. A couple of times I have been to my dealer to book it in for a recall before he has been told. Anyway, the post that your reply was to was the fact that I couldn't get onto the website and NOT the PTI page. The website at the time said it was unavailable because it was "busy"

 

[Spensaf]

Total wishful thinking BUT thought I'd share.

The Grimaldi RoRo tracking service showed my car on the Grande Florida on 27th March which I presume is accurate and ties up with the Vista date of COMPOUND OUT on the last date of 27/3/21.

Neither have had changes since nor has my Etis got any date later than 9/3/21.

The Grande Florida left Antwerp yesterday, and is currently in the Bristol Channel.

Could the car have stayed on the boat????

I know I'm being really stupid in even thinking that. ?
