Hi do you know if your car made it off the ship?
Hi there
I was wondering if anyone is currently waiting on their order but has been delayed due to the current heat pump issues? Curious as to current delivery dates Audi are suggesting.
Our E-Tron GT Vorsprung had a week 5 build week but has since been stuck on ‘production point 7 of 8 and awaiting the final parts before it can leave the factory’ according to our dealer.
We’ve queried this further and got the following response:
‘I have now found out that GT’s which were handed over between December and February were having a heating problem (the in cabin heating not working at all). Audi decided to build the cars with the faulty heat pump (i.e. yours) and put it in the compound (built but with the faulty pump). Audi have ordered all new heater pumps but they are on back order, the manager said “I am going to be completely honest we don’t know when these parts will arrive, it could be next week or next month”. I did ask the question if it could be released and the faulty part fitted at a later date but they wouldn’t release a faulty car which is understandable.’

How long have you been waiting as there was an unwritten theory of approximately 10 working days between arriving at the port in Germany and it going on the ship. Have you been given a status update from your dealer?

Ah ok. Sounds as though it's quite changeable. Mine was stuck at Port Of Exit Status 38 for around 2 weeks back in November. Can promise you it's worth the wait so hopefully not long now!
please let us know what you think but I am guessing it will be well below what you had in the Tesla. The adaptive cruise is nice but the lane assist is garbage and worse than my 2016 RS7.
