Looks like Burmester had been dropped from the configurator for all variants in UK. To be honest the issues with Burmester have been going back as far as late 21 so can’t say I’m surprised.

What issues?
Parts availability or technical issues?
Parts.

My car was ordered at the beginning of June 21. Car was in collected just before Xmas 21. On collection SE told me had another customer with near identical spec except his had Burmester. This customer ordered before me and his car was sat at Emdem waiting for parts on his Burmester.

Another consequence of Putin’s war of aggression in Ukraine.
Putin is a gangster but much of the electronic parts shortage was chip plants closing during Covid so not related to Ukraine.
The Ukraine related delays did include wiring harnesses earlier

i have this on my build that hasn’t hit production yet for US delivery. Wondering why the US still has this but UK and Germany dont.

I ordered my GTS in December and it finally arrived at dealership last month and I’m still waiting on the amp. I have a big road trip next week so I’m super bummed because I thought I’d have my car by now.

amp shortage, my OPC told me 2 weeks ago that orders with the Burmester system will have at least 8 weeks of delay. I went with the Bose Surround after the side-by-side comparison at the dealer, to me when the volume is below 13-15, hardly any difference between with 2 systems, when tuning up the volume 15+ the difference is quite noticeable, Bose with deep/heavy bass makes it somewhat muddy whereas Burmester delivers very crisps sound with/wo surround, however i don't (never done) blast the volume in any of my car to wake up the entire neighbourhood, so instead i opted for PCCB

Do you know if they downgrade to Bose from Burmester? I think I'd refuse to buy it if it went from Burmester to base without telling me.

In Spain, it is still shown in the configurator… guess it may have not been updated yet…

My SA said there's a stop order on Burmester in the US but that mine made it in before the stop order. We'll see.

Any idea when the stop order on the Burmester sound system will be lifted?
