Got an update today saying car has left San Jose to go to Veracruz. Then there is a map showing calls at Jacksonville, Rhode Island, Emden and then UK.

Do you get an update when it's at San Jose on the ship? Also that many calling points to the UK?
Check out the link I posted here:

I find it interesting UK cars have to travel via Germany first. I am on the other side of Mexico and need to wait for shipping to Japan, Korea and Singapore before Australia.

How long does a build take once allocated to a build week?

In theory within a week car the car is built and in Quality Control...

Usually you find the car is allocated the build week which from memory is the Sunday or Monday date but usually the tracker begins to update a couple of days before and you'll find that the car is actually entering quality control on the date they'd given you for Build to start
 
So it it in Status 30 (left factory)? I don't know if Q5's go to Status 38 (at port) in Veracruz or Emden?

How did you know which ship it got on when it's been status 30?
 
After my build date was complete and the message appeared about my car had left San Jose, Mexico.
I contacted my dealer who as able to tell me my car was on a cargo ship just off New York.
I've been following the PGL group updates daily and saving them as they change daily and this allowed me to work out the vehicle carrier.
The only ship that was off New York area with a track for Emden after calling at Jacksonville and Davisville was the Viking Conquest.
It has just arrived in the vicinity of Emden in the last hour.
