How to check build.progress

Hi all,
I see many people checking their build process with BMW... How does one do this? I assume you need an order number or something? What does the order number format look like? I've got something called order number 5 numbers dash 4 numbers .. nnnnn-nnnn.. Would that be it?

Go on the bmw website, go to build a car and the BMW Genius chat comes up or is accessed on the left hand side. Start a chat, give them your order number and they will tell you the latest status.

Hmmm seems the "order number" i have is not the one GENIUS wants.. It's supposed to be a 7 digit number beginning with 3.

But at least I know how to check.. Cheers guys.

Should be on the front page of your contract, on the right hand side (the vehicle description is to the left of it).

If you have a VIN, you can also use that to check and get more detail. VINs are only assigned very close to build time, once you reach 5000/5055.

You may need to contact your dealer for it - my printed order had a different number, that Genius didn't recognise. An email to the dealer did the trick.

They don't always fill that bit out!
