Had 2 orders last year come from Mexico to NJ, so I had to watch the shipping quite a bit. There was mention on the g20 board that 1 ship last year skipped Baltimore altogether. We don't know the reason. Those with cars on the vessel destined for Baltimore said that the cars were offloaded in Bayonne, NJ and sent by truck to Baltimore.

Thank you for the info

Well today my m2 is at port and awaiting the truck on the 7th

[Kentuckymike]

Well it was worth the wait.

nice! you got yours so fast haha great timing with picking up the allocation. 300 miles on mine and it keeps getting better, can't wait until 50-100% throttle over 4k rpm post-break in service

[BokTroy]

I’m about to the same lol. You got it so fast and mine is still in transit. Congrats and enjoy the car! (And get it protected!)

I got a ceramic coating on it. Hope that’s good for the paint. Got a skid plate and oil radiator guard that hasn’t came in yet. Yours was in the ship with mine wasn’t it? Mine made it to Cincinnati last Thursday. Did you have m parts that needed added at the port?

I’m in the same boat. I got 350 miles on mine already. I’m dying to open it up some.
Yeah eight weeks from ordering to picking it up. I’m happy with how fast it was.

Did you buy from Don Jacobs? I took their demo vehicle - was a nice group to work with.

I got mine from the bmw store. I liked the people. Really good experience there. They was the dealership with the allotment lol

So found my first few issues already. Have to take it back in next Wednesday. The windshield wiper fluid doesn’t spray out. It’s just a small thing but first issue. That and several times it doesn’t log me in as the driver and I’m not sure why. And … and. Lol. Apple CarPlay is hit and miss sometimes for the controls.

I started having that issue of the car not logging me into my BMW id when starting the car. I realized it's because I was using the other key fob, not the one used to initially setup the car for me. Maybe there is a way to program both to bring your ID up but I haven't looked into it.

Not sure if your issue is the same thing, just sharing what I experienced.

Yep you are with me on the same boat, I do have a HAS kit that was delayed by sometime and the car is scheduled for PCD delivery which I believe delayed further. And Yeah, I have radiator guard and oil cooler guard sitting at my garage waiting for it haha. Glad you got the ceramic coating, will make maintaine the paint much easier!

I’m using the same key everytime. The spare is hanging in my lockbox from day one when I got home. I can come out and it not log me in. It says guest. Then stop at a store and come back out and it log me in.

Keep the other key somewhere far away from where you park the car and see if that helps. Otherwise it might be “tuned in” to the guest key in the house (but in range of the car) and start with that profile. Maybe will help.

I rarely use mine and it takes a moment for it to come out. In general it seems to take longer with this design of spraying at the wiper arms. Anyway, still could be something wrong or your bottle could be empty.

I'm in the same boat. I set up one key to an ID I created. But I switch keys every month. This month every time I get in the car I have to switch from Guest to the ID I set up.

Would like #2 key to have the same ID associated with it as the #1 key or perhaps I have to create a 2nd ID with the same privileges (?) as the ID that is associated with the #1 key.

Really don't recall using the M2 windshield washer. Have not driven the car in the rain.

Now I have used my 230xi's windshield washer and while it emits washer fluid it doesn't flood the glass...

But the output appears to increase the longer I have the washer feature active.

I probably should use the M2 washer some. I have experienced with at least one other car and not using the washer the washer system (nozzles at least) become partially blocked.

Next time before I wash the car I'll use the wipers and the washer to see how it works, or doesn't work. If it emits anything I can rinse it away when I wash the car.

One option I've heard of is people setting their guest ID to all the same settings as their profile. I don't know if you can sync the fobs with the same ID. I also feel for the auto transmission owners that have the digital key there are more capabilities for syncing things.

Yeah it’s got fluid and I’ve held it down for a long time and nothing. I’m going to drop it off at the dealership Wednesday. It’s more than likely just a hose or something
