Australasia Grenadier Delivery & Wait Times in Australia.

You need to get the VIN from the dealer.

Ha. Im sure my weekly email to the dealer will be gently received…

 

[Shippa]

Not sure. Where do they publish that info?

Either the dealer or you can contact ineos grenadier by chat or the phone number on your portal, and ask them. They will only tell you after you have signed a contract. I found IG (phone) much quicker than the dealer in my area!
Hope that helps

I’ve sent IG customer service an email requesting the vin.
On a side note has anyone here noticed problems trying to click and download the documents after the fact on the portal?
If I click “View Contract” or “Deposit Invoice” neither of those links works, I just receive an error message.

 

[LeftCoastOverland]

What is your VIN? Mine is 7719. Morning Composer docks at Port Melbourne before Port Kembla.

Got my vin today! 11649 how do I look up what ship it’s on?

Wow. That’s 1,500 ahead of mine in a very short amount of time. They must have really ramped things up!

As for a ship, I highly doubt your truck is on one already. My truck, 10257, was still waiting at the factory.

When I enter the whole vin into Google nothing comes up, I imagine it’s still on the assembly line. As it does get closer to shipment Will a Google search yield anything of value?

You now need the Customer Number of INEOS for the port of delivery. I did know the Port Kembla number, but I have lost it. Your port of delivery is Melbourne?

@MrMike helped me.

Update to post #2,429

Hi,
after one week and a total lack of communication from the dealer i was at the dealer yesterday.
They still did not find a root cause for the black screen.
Dealer is now waiting for on premise support from Ineos, cause Ineos was also unable to analyse and fix it remotely.
We're sure (and sad) that we can't welcome the Gren at our home this year.
So, Santa will have to load the presents into the Volvo and not into the Gren as we had hoped.

My wife and i wish you a Merry Christmas.

On occasions when I turn off the Grenadier the fan continues to run for a further 5/6 minutes. Im led to believe that this is a normal product and procedure for the BMW Diesel and that is a feature that is designed to expel heat from around the engine bay especially in hot climates. Anyone else having this situation?

Yes mine does that when real hot. That’s with a petrol engine.

Certainly do.
I don't find it loud or embarrassing as some people on here have commented.
Just life in the tropics, plenty of other brands do it too and a normal part of the soundscape.

 

[TheDocAUS]

It looks like the Morning Composer will arrive at Port Melbourne in the next day or so, then Port Kembla. The ship has just passed Port Fairy. EDIT: it has arrived, now waiting for an available dock to unload. That can be a long wait in Port Melbourne.

6 Grenadiers on the ship are for Purnell Adventure, to be offloaded at Port Kembla.

Now delivery is beginning to look close.

My petrol does it, I have to drive up a steep hill to get to my street, which may heat the turbo up. Now if I turn around in said street and back down my driveway, which takes more time at idle, I don’t get the fan noise when I shut down. I have put it down to turbo cooling.

Yes, diesel, especially heavy towing in hot temperatures, working it hard and then turning vehicle off when I should have given it time to cool a little. Keep telling myself let the turbo's warm up.. let the turbo's cool down. I watch my temps regularly when towing and I must say it's cooling systems are very effective indeed.

"Yes" on both counts ...it is a feature; and mine (diesel Trialmaster) behaves similarly..... "Turbo timers" which either run fans or enable the engine to idle after "shut down" are a common after market accessory for all manner of vehicles, I recently discovered! It was also explained to me that if the turbo has been working hard (especially on hot days -e.g when towing) then if possible for the last few km of the trip to go easy on the throttle pressure so that the turbo and its oil supply are able to cool somewhat before the engine is shut down.

My portal still shows the below
Contract expired
Please get in touch.
Please contact us: Grenadier.Checkout.ContactInfo.AU
IG have a signed contract and confirm this when i queried it. Portal has not changed in 2 months!
Just tried the configurator and checkout, said build at $142K and checkout driveaway price at $142K. No stamp duty, delivery fee, or fuel in their price today.

Randomly checking feeds ( and not paying attention to the name of this thread), I was trying to figure out how you could option a Grenny up to $142K. I forgot your Western Australia has the same abbreviation as our Washington state, so you were quoting Aussie dollars. I need another cup of coffee

Looks like Santa decided to become a Sailor this Christmas!

How did you go with Jasper? We have just purchase a home at Clifton Beach which I believe was untouched due to being on an elevated block of ground. Mould will no doubt be a problem though.

Our house is well elevated on the range, west side of Cairns, so nothing major. Most of the problems were suburbs in the Barron flood plain. Yeah we got a bit of mould on the internal walls, the wife had a “mould day” or two whilst I was at work. Clifton is a nice spot.
