Audi orders can be shipped from Emden or Bremerhaven. Since I didn't find any vessels arriving to Port of San Diego from Emden, Germany in April or May, I looked into vessels departing from Bremerhaven.
All VAG cars (Audi, Porsche, VW) are shipped from Emden. Bremerhaven is the port BMW uses. If you goto The PWL Group and then under Liner Schedules select "USA Gulf" and then select Volkswagen the current shipping schedule will download. This schedule changes regularly, so check it often. Typically there are not many San Diego ships as compared to Davisville.

Default update

So just got an update from sales rep.

Car to be loaded on the ship 4/1. ETA arrival date 4/27. Still can't find the vessel to match that particular date.

I've confirmed that I am signed up for the Owner in Waiting program. But no emails or updates from them so far. I guess its best to contact dealer directly.

The wait is killing me! In the meantime, i'm looking for Xpel installation and opticoat. In cali, I'm being quoted 2500$ for full front. $450 for rear bumper. Opticoat Pro 700$ + 400$ stage 1 color matching.

Most likely she'll be on the Hoegh Delhi that is scheduled to be docked at port on April 2. It only takes less than 24 hours to load up a ro-ro vessel. The dock works round the clock and through the night.

I'm confused with my order tracking now. Dealer said my car is getting loaded today. Arrival at port on 4/27. I contacted Audi of America. They notified me that car has not been built yet and ETA is June instead. I am hoping dealer has more detailed and accurate info??

My vehicle is scheduled to leave Germany on 4/24 ... scheduled to arrive at the port of Houston on 5/17. Not sure when the vehicle actually arrives at the German port from the factory.

Looking at the VW Konzertlogistik Shipping Schedule for April, it looks like your car will be on the Oregon Highway Ro-Ro Vessel which is scheduled to pick up shipments on April 26. April 22, is probably when it leaves the factory. The ship is scheduled to reach Houston by May 19.

This seems to be the most logical guess. The next nearest possibility is the Adriatic Highway vessel scheduled to arrive in Emden on 4/20 and arrive in Houston on 5/14.

Volkswagen Konzernlogistik Ro/Ro Services

Thanks,

Just curious. When did you order your car?
