  1. Overnight front suspension sag ? Front suspension loud squeaks?

    it's a visible sag, i can tell the car is lower than it was when i parked, always using all purpose no-auto manual standard height. it's been happening all year round.
  2. Overnight front suspension sag ? Front suspension loud squeaks?

    I don't remember when this started but it's been a very long time (years?). 2023 R1S Gen 1 Usually happens overnight or even during some driving. Start driving in the morning, after the first stop at a traffic light, the car front end adjusts itself. Can happen throughout the day if you...
  3. Has Anyone Tried Windshield Skin?

    i have the same ExoShield.... about 1 year now and i dropped by the installer, they were surprised at all my "rock chips" in a year but the film is holding up, no issues, need to re-apply ceramic coating on it again at some point
  4. Another Windshield Q&A Thread...

    the exoshield is unrelated to the interior llumar air 80 tint. it's purely for windshield protection, about 700, prices in my area = not cheap.
  5. Another Windshield Q&A Thread...

    I've only replaced my windshield once. Used a Rivian certified repair center - cost 2k, fully reimbursed by insurance, no questions asked. Initially, i only had UV tint on the first windshield, now with the second, i went with Llumar Air 80 tint and added Exoshield on the outside. It's...

  9. QuikrStuff Mach 2 Hitch Review 1 to 4 bike rack with R1s

    I had the 1up 2/3 bike rack on my R1S. I use a hitch extender with 2 in drop because the R1S hitch height is too high to toss an e-mtb on it easily. The 1-up in 3 bike mode is very bulky to move and mount. Sold it and switched to the modular Quikrstuff since you can add/remove each rack, one...
  10. Better than expected efficiency - rooftop box & ski rack on R1S (Gen 1)

    nice, i start at 100% from Bellevue, make lunch pit stop in Vancouver and normally charge 1x in Squamish, at the EA chargers (350kW!) across from the London Drugs (same area as the Tesla SC). I find that i use 25%-30%ish from Squamish (Garibaldi Village) to Whistler Village given the elevation...
  11. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    When you cast from phone to Rivian car, the Rivian display MUST use the car's data connection to retrieve the streaming media. Your phone is the "glorified" remote control, but both must be on the same network (aka Rivian has required it to be the car's hotspot). As for the car's data...

  13. "Replace 12V right away" but no available Service Center appointments

    well, here's some amazing props to Rivian service. I live about 3 miles from the nearest Service Center, called service, they said there's a mobile unit nearby, i said sure, come on by. He jump-started the car to open frunk, replaced 12v battery. From service call to mobile visit and battery...
