Hi all,
Does anyone have an idea what the timescales are for actually getting the ID3. So if the order tracker says "in transit", would there be a feel for how long to actually getting the car?

In transit is anything from leaving the factory to arriving in the UK. If you signed up to get text messages that is cut into 3 variations.

Don't quote on this but I believe 5a is left the factory, 5b arrived at depature port and 5c on board a ship heading to either Sheerness, Grimsby/Immingham or Tynemouth.

I am signed up for text messages but I haven't had any. All I can see on the tracker, is that it's "in transit".

That's an odd one. I know a lot of ICE VW's are being held at the factories but I haven't heard of any EV's.
Be worth checking with your dealer as their coding system is different to what we have.

The tracking webpage has been removed. You will still get email notifications if you signed up for them but mentions nothing about SMS alerts.

Have spoken to VW CS and they were just as much in the dark as I was.

The My VW UK web now says contact your dealer to get updates but the person I spoke to at VW CS said you can still go through them.

Removal of the order tracking function is extremely shoddy and the opposite of customer service. Mind you, the quality of the online services is almost comically poor. Nothing works: multiple loops that simply go round in circles. Given the reliance on software in the ID3 this is a worrying sign. If they can't get something as basic as a chat function working on a mobile site what hope is there?

Due to order tracker being down I emailed dealer for delivery update, car was ordered 10/07/21, this was their response.

Just thought I would drop you an email regarding the latest update on your order.



Like many other manufacturers and other sectors of industry, we are experiencing some supply chain issues and a few of our components

are in short supply, in particular those relating to semiconductors, which have reduced VW production capacity.

This means delivery times for some of our model lines are a little longer than we would normally expect.



The latest information on your ID-3 order 313XXXXX, delivery is now going to be more likely into next year.

Please be assured VW are working hard to deliver your chosen vehicle as quickly as possible.

Oh dear! When did your dealer originally say it would be delivered? Also what model did you order?

Our Tour was ordered 12-July, order number 31384xxx. Dealer said December, possibly 2022. Would be interested to know if your order number is within the same/similar 1000, as that would certainly fit with the guidance I've got. I mean it's not good news, but it's at least some confirmation :-D

It might be worth asking VW CS via their chat service and asked what the provisional build week is as there usually is one on every order.
Be interesting to see how far it gets pushed back.

Ordered 28th June order number 3133xxxx and was told 16-18 weeks. Build week confirmed for 3rd week in September.

Will be very disappointed if I have to wait until next year for mine.

The "missing-in-action" Live Chat that proudly proclaims itself, yet I can never find any actual visible links to said Live Chat ? :D I assumed they'd turned it off at the same time they'd removed order tracking capability from the website. Is it still there ?

Looking at the website the Live Chat symbol is not currently showing on their site. It has shown a few times since they revoked the online tracking. If it does not show you can also call CS on 0800 333 666 and ask them.
Also I got an email confirmation from VW CS stating if you have signed up for SMS alerts before we lost the tracker you will still receive them.

Just checked the site again and the Chat symbol is showing, it shows in the bottom right of the screen as shown in this screenshot

After going to the page it took 5 minutes for the Chat symbol to appear. I would guess the system is busy especially after their own making.

Got on the chat. Nothing I asked got anything back other than this. I'll chase the dealer too, see if I get more than "Computer Says No"...
