  1. SONOS Roam Speakers?

    Anyone had any experiences (beyond reconfiguring the speakers to connect to the cars’ Hotspot) using SONOS Roam speakers whilst out camping/glamping/overlanding?
  2. 9 days into ownership r1s trimax, not impressed

    You’re not alone, although sadly you do seem to have more problems than anticipated. I’ve noticed the same about the heat pump, but in my experience it’s more obnoxious when used to heat the car, AC doesn’t seem to produce half as much noise, but it does still vibrate through the pedals &...
  3. Rivian on home wifi

    Ours only comes up as Murata, but had to replace our home WiFi system with a newer, (Eero), since the Rivian refused to connect to the (only 4yr old) Netgear routers.
  4. Poll: Would you buy your Rivian again?

    Would we buy our R1S DPMax again? - Ish. Now that we’re over the initial novelty, I still feel underwhelmed by the chasm of difference between buying a product from a, ā€˜tech company,’ (no matter how good it is as a vehicle), compared to a legacy car manufacturer. Despite how much we both love...
  5. V2H ?

    Exactly, but at least for the time being the Tesla website suggests a federal rebate of nearly half the cost.
  6. V2H ?

    Agreed, during the height of Summer we often get brownouts. Sometimes due to demand, sometimes due to inclement weather & the risk of wildfires. Asking the question simply as trying to work out the logistics & timing, of whether to add powerwall batteries to our existing solar, so that our home...
  7. V2H ?

    Seem to remember there was a rumour last year that Rivian would add V2H as a function in, ā€˜the near future’. Has anyone heard of any progress/likelihood to this?
  8. Dashboard Rattle - Solved using rubber seal strip

    Have you also noticed a scratch line between the the tailgate & the lower section with scratches on that lower painted section? Have only so briefly been on unpaved (but incorporated) roads, but already the friction from fine sand has left a scratch line between the two sections? (They didn’t...
  9. Heater vibrating

    Sadly that is often the case with the Service Centres, but from experience when you do finally get to see them, they are nothing but excellent & very friendly. Assuming you’re not in a severely cold area maybe try not to use the Heat too much, (or put on an extra layer). The AC very rarely makes...
  10. Heater vibrating

    It’s the worst!!! Seems to be worse on Heat than AC, but what a terrible grinding noise!!! & I can feel the vibrations through the steering wheel & pedals. Only solve to mitigate it that I’ve found is to adjust the temperature up or down & the fan speed. But seems to go away after about...
  11. Retrofit hardware?

    Has anyone heard of, or had any conversations to exploring retrofitting build options post delivery? i.e. Chrome Delete/Black Out, or adding the Compressor, or anything else that we ā€˜might’ have included presale, or configured, but instead thought it’s all adding to being too much at that...
  12. R1T versus Cybertruck

    Just read this: https://www.topgear.com/car-news/marques-brownlee/marques-brownlee-rivian-r1t-electric-pick
  13. Update 2025.06 is out!

    Maybe a new thread but: If you’re prepared to pay for both Performance, & unlocking extra battery range, is there a possibility to pay for and have installed build options after delivery? Like the air compressor, or blackout?
  14. Update 2025.06 is out!

    We’ve had the vehicle since September & have never had an issue with any updates, to date, hence the frustration.
  15. Update 2025.06 is out!

    O, apologies, paid for Connect + outright, not that it works anyway.
  16. Update 2025.06 is out!

    Gen 2, R1S PDM. 2 days & still no prompt to get this update. Questioned it through the app (yes 2.200) & was offered a mobile service, earliest a month away of of 9th April. I had spent over $500 to rebuild my at home WiFi so that this vehicle could ā€˜seeā€˜ my WiFi network. Yet daily I work...
  17. Gen2 Quad Motor Pricing Leaked by Costco! R1S = $115,900 / R1T = $109,900

    That R1S Blue is the similar to my former Lancia Integrale, ā€˜Lord Blue’. It’s no way near the ā€˜Rivian’ Blue they currently offer. But the calipers in the photos for the new Quad are a greeney/blue, not the yellow in this screen shot, which we know now signify the Tri Motor currently on sale. But...
  18. What do you think of Dual Motor Performance? | Views on Sport Mode in particular

    We got the Performance option on purchase. We’ve maybe used it twice & then only on smooth tarmac & to ā€˜test’ it. It’s nice to know it’s there & Sport mode does have much more urgency to it, but tbh for everyday driving, AP has plenty of acceleration particularly when joining a freeway. I’d...
  19. R2's Pop-Out Rear Quarter Windows may also be removable (patent)

    As I’d pay for a sunroof that actually opens, & a retractable blind in an R1S.
