BMW website not working?

Fake News 2017 · 07-27-2016, 05:12 PM

Worked today with Production Number, wrong color but i've heard that happens in early production.

Didn't work with VIN

NatiD82 · 07-27-2016, 05:31 PM

Don't shoot the messenger snareman

That is what I was told, initially.....then he seemed to have changed his mind.

NatiD82 · 07-27-2016, 05:33 PM

BTW, for giggles, I created a 2nd account today too, it doesn't work with either of those, Both had the 440i added to, and stopped working as soon as I attempted to log in again....

No, no. I wasn't shooting you, I was shooting him for giving you what seemed like bogus info.

Just spotted, an ultra-rare Comp Pack M3 with factory installed 18s.

I guess I'm getting more than just my diff changed.

humbertin0 · 07-27-2016, 11:03 PM

I was able to log in today also.

Cheers!

Try putting in your 7 digit production number instead.

That's what happens when employees used to writing car software are asked to write web code.

I was finally able to get a little further today after entering my production number. But somehow I'm not getting the screenshot that you guys showing. All I get was vehicle has been added and model and description (no images). Is it because I don't have a VIN # and should I give it some time to get into the database? Also earlier this week I called Genius and they told me my vehicle is week 40. That's all I know at this point.

Nick7700 · 07-28-2016, 08:05 AM

Never mind...it's there now. SO I logged off and logged back on and it displays it now.
Typically how long does it takes to see a status code (i.e. 112, 150)?

Week 40 is the first week of Oct. you have a long wait and won't get your car until the end of Nov. the website is currently not working with just a production number even for those whose productions have long finished. Hang in tight.

Status codes won't show up on the website, just the general 'production begins', 'production ends' etc. Most genius reps won't give the code either, you can ask your CA for the code or get a VIR (Vehicle Inquiry Report) from your CA which will have the specific code.

IT WORKS!!!!!

NatiD82 · 07-28-2016, 09:36 AM

Mazal Tov! the interesting thing is that it started working the same day BMW updated the model line up in their website builder for the 440i....mmmmmm

Hoosierlegend · 08-01-2016, 10:35 PM

Got same error. Initially couldn't find car with production number. Once have VIN, directed to the ESign issue that never resolves. New email registered doesn't work.

Can confirm the previous FS payments comment is definitely not true and cause of issue.

Dinax0 · 08-04-2016, 11:22 PM

Tried it today and it's worked anyone else had the same luck?

sandwi54 · 08-04-2016, 11:36 PM

It started working today for me too!

apgawlf9196 · 08-05-2016, 06:12 AM

Works for me now as well.
