  1. Anyone have issues with Chromecast/YouTube on their R1S?

    This happened for me on my '23 R1T today following update to 2025.10.01. Hard reset did not resolve.
  2. Insane towing range estimate

    Just towed our empty boat trailer from San Antonio to Corpus Christi yesterday. Our estimates weren't nearly as wacky as the OP, but they were certainly off quite a bit. It kept trying to force a stop at a fast charger, but we stuck to our guns and arrived with 60 miles in reserve. To quote my...
  3. Mercedes Benz Charging as Alternative to Tesla

    Couple of quick updates: I noticed that Rivian navigation showed the MB chargers the day after I made this post. Think that means I somehow missed that and made a mistake about the listing. As of today, I see that they changed our every other CCS port with a NACS port. Oddly enough, hey chose...
  4. R1T left taillight replace.

    Yup. Mine had a crack/hole in it from OO damage. Repaired it with 3M kit and it works fine but it isn't pretty. Then again, replacing it without also replacing my dinged tailgate is probably silly.
  5. Airport Parking Severe Range Loss despite Transport Mode

    Crazy thought... My Volvo similarly brick once at the airport after a long trip. My solution was to install a battery saver device that disconnects the 12v battery when voltage reaches a certain level. Remote button that I have routed to the outside in a hidden location allows you to turn it...
  6. R1T left taillight replace.

    Angle at the forward end of the side bed panel is held captive by the front/tonneau panel. Nonetheless, you should be able to take out a few bolts and flex the panel to get access to the bolt for the tail light. Think I will stop in at my SC tomorrow and ask about their price on a new rear...
  7. Air compressor adapter for camping air mattress

    Very nice. Would love to make one so that I don't have to bring my SUP inflator for camping (although it also helps with mattress deflation). Can you point us to the STL or CAD file for your thingy?
  8. Mercedes Benz Charging as Alternative to Tesla

    Hey, I stopped at the Buc-ee's in New Braunfels TX this evening to charge at the 20+ Tesla superchargers. This is a common stop for me between Austin and San Antonio on long drive days. I've had qualms about putting $$ in Tesla's pockets, but the reliability and pricing differences make using...
  9. 12v Lead Acid Battery Replacement

    I have done that a few times with no negative impact. Should be fine unless they changed something in the software. Haven't seen anyone else reporting issues. Sounds like you mobile tech is taking the approach that customers shouldn't touch anything on the truck
  10. 12v Lead Acid Battery Replacement

    That is not entirely true. There are methods to replace the 12v without interrupting 12v power. Disconnecting the HV does not require a special reset. Current versions of the software allow resetting 12v errors via the RIDE menu.
  11. 12v Lead Acid Battery Replacement

    My appointment last month was for tire rotation. SC did it for $60. Tires should not need rebalancing after rotation if already balanced.
  12. 12v Lead Acid Battery Replacement

    FWIW, from a chat I had with SC staff last month it looks like they have hired contractors in some locations to do routine (lower skill) jobs like tire rotations and 12v battery swaps. Hopefully that is keeping the costs down a bit. Might also be that they are absorbing some of the cost as a way...
  13. Chat Now Broken on Android

    Thanks. That just takes you to the web site for chat. Chat is no longer a function in the Android application.
  14. Chat Now Broken on Android

    Chat no longer appears as an option under Manage Account, Get In Touch on my Android app 2.21.0 Did they move it somewhere else?
  15. Owl together now... ? Hoot is back ?

    You just made my day! I had not realized that was an option. Thank you!
  16. R1T Range Extender!?

    Unless I am mistaken, there aren't any real-world production range extender vehicles except for the discontinued BMW i3 and Chevy Volt. It seems a bit disingenuous to rave at how great something is that only exists in theory or prototype. The real world examples of range extenders have all kinda...
  17. Owl together now... ? Hoot is back ?

    Love this sound and so do the owls at our place. They often reply. Anyway, just had to seek out one of these bumper stickers. Wish I could make it hoot during daylight.
