Ordered 26th April, BW confirmed week 25 (this week) and told should be with dealer for 22nd July.  After all the push backs been shown on here I've asked for confirmation that the build has / is starting this week.  Watch this space........ :wink:
how? how? and how again?? I ordered 3 and half weeks before and have an unconfirmed bw 9 weeks later than you. this is what pi77es me off with VW!!!

If yours does get built this week, it looks like this is the week for black DSGs to be made. Ring VW UK up and quote your order number the dealership should have given you e.g. 2323xxxx, they'll tell you exactly where it is at. Of course, if you have the order number you should go to the "track my order" at the VW UK website and hopefully your status will be "build week confirmed", if not then it's probably been put back.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

It's still build week confirmed and has been for about 4 weeks.  VW confirmed it was on track a couple of weeks ago, they have promised to come back tomorrow to confirm if it's still on track...I'll update as soon as I have the info.

This is just hilarious.  VW have variously claimed that the DSG, the sunroof and the GTD are all reasons for a delay.  Yet here we have all three in a single vehicle that is one of the very first to be built.  When did you place the order dervy?

I think we can definitely rule out pano roof as a potential source of delays. DSG isn't an issue either as my dad's should be in transit in the next few days.

Hello guys, I ordered the car on 3rd April and had a provisional build week of 36 which moved to 25 about 5 weeks ago. 4 weeks ago it showed "build week confirmed" on the tracker which it showed until this morning. Better pull my finger out in terms of putting my number plate on retention.

As George K has said the DSG could be a hold up if only a certain number of dsg boxes are built or allocated at a time. Its not only VW that use the dsg box so if they are sharing it round then it may well be a hold up option.
