Hi guys,
New to the forum. I ordered my Tiguan end of December, received the built email from VW a few weeks ago.
Just found out this morning it is on the FAUST and ETA in Melbourne is 8/4!
Not long to go now...

Good stuff, enjoy it, what model, options and color did you order?
Hi IsDon
Now the dream becomes a reality. Now the internet and the maritime ship tracking website becomes more important than your wife.

Ordered: 2017 build date Tiguan 162 TSI Highline with DAP in Tungsten Silver and rear luggage tray. ETA: late April / Early May. I did not have to wait. I took delivery on 11 March 2017.
If what I read is correct, I can't track it until it leaves the factory. Is that correct?
It will take a week or so for your car to leave the factory in Wolfsburg to go to Bremerhaven (the shipping terminal). Tracking starts with the actual shipment from Germany to Australia, the earliest you can see this is when your car has been booked for shipment on a specific vessel, but for me, and quite a few others, you might not be able to track it until it has been loaded on the ship and the ship has left the terminal. For hvc01 and me, it wasn't showing up until about 2 days after the ship had departed, so don't panic too much.
Enter your VIN in the cargo ID field and hit Track. If there are no records found, try again each day When it does appear, you'll be able to see what ship it is on, and what the ETD is for Port Kembla.
Once you know what vessel it is on, you can use this site: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais...tery:20/zoom:2 to track the movements of the vessel on a map. Sometimes you'll lose contact with it for days on end, don't worry, it hasn't sunk or been captured by pirates. As you track the ship on the map you'll realise how much your geographical knowledge of the west coast of Africa improves!
You lucky ducks! I signed in Oct. Requested a MY17. Called my dealer a number of times but they can only provide me with general time frames. No VIN. He says he cannot show be NADCON printout. I've contacted VWA for my ETA and they referred me back to the dealer. .
