That’s definitely possible when all the modules are working properly and programmed as they should be. In my previous truck, I’m pretty sure there was either a wiring issue or one of the modules was intermittently failing. I think I’ve mentioned before that the truck would sometimes ask for a...

Hey everyone, my dear readers of this thread, Today marks the end of an era — I’m no longer the owner of my Rivian R1T. It’s a day I won’t forget. The Porsche Taycan Turbo is already in action, and I’ve made it back to my city, enjoying the new ride. No more wild adventures with my Rivian. I...

Hi there! The truck no longer knows what firmware version it’s running — and I think the only way it might figure that out is by taking it back to the U.S. 😅 So it seems this one just isn’t meant to get updates. I actually told the new owner not to even bother trying, just to avoid running into...

Hey everyone, it’s been a while since I last posted here — I’ve been pretty busy. Today I finally sat down in my Rivian again and noticed something funny: the truck no longer shows its software version at all. It’s like it has no idea what’s going on with itself 😅 Strange little detail… but the...

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely enjoy every moment left with this truck. I think this whole adventure taught me a few truths: 1. Even when it feels like there’s no way out — there usually is, if you keep pushing. 2. Risk is a double-edged sword — sometimes it brings reward, sometimes it...

Thank you all for following along and reading this thread — maybe it really is the best thread on the forum in terms of how the story unfolded 😄. It wasn’t easy, but it definitely turned into a real adventure!

Thank you for the support, I was also really hoping this update would finally work out! :) I’ll definitely return to Rivian once the new Quad is being sold steadily and doesn’t get too many bad reviews. Until then, it’s time to save up and wait patiently! 😄

Thank you so much for the support — it was tough, but we did it! All those hours of searching and working were not in vain. Huge respect to all the techs involved, especially the master from the UAE who did his job quickly and professionally. Massive thanks to @Riviot for sharing instructions...

Hey everyone, Finally, I have some good news — my truck is fully functional now, except for one remaining error (which should go away on its own). I’ll attach a photo of it below. That said, I’m not saying goodbye just yet. I still have the chance to enjoy my truck until August 4th, and I’ll...

I think Rivian really needs to focus more on reliability. I’ve spoken with quite a few Rivian owners — some had suspension issues, others had persistent electronics problems, and a few had basically everything go wrong at once. But to be fair, it’s hard to expect perfection from such a young...

Man, that’s really unfortunate… I’ll definitely tell the guys at the car wash to be extra gentle with my truck from now on 😅 Honestly, I thought mine was the earliest VIN on the whole forum — turns out there are folks here with even older builds! I guess for those of us with trucks that rolled...

Yeah, it’s honestly hard to disagree with you — especially considering your truck is even older than mine (mine is VIN 11999). But at least you’ve got access to proper service that handles everything under warranty. Sometimes I feel like my Rivian doesn’t really have major factory defects — as...

Honestly, during all the time I’ve owned this truck, it has never once connected to Rivian’s servers. There are many possible reasons (for example, it was likely banned from accessing the servers while it was in Russia), but I’ll probably never know the exact cause — especially if the car...

Hmm, I know that the telematics module behind the rear seat is responsible for Wi-Fi and the SIM card — I actually soldered in a local SIM card myself at one point. I’m also aware of the module located in the passenger footwell, but so far there haven’t been any reported issues with it. That...

How lucky you are to at least have service centers within a three-hour drive — I would give anything to have even just one official service center in the entire country here.:)
