  1. Fan noise?

    Not normal at all. But it is how the AC was designed by the clever Rivian engineers.
  2. Got dinged in parking lot—what should I do?

    1) I am sorry this happened to you. It happened to me as well. Some people are so unethical. They flee the scene without any note. 2) PDR may fix it magically. It may cost you only a few hundred dollars. I thanked God for PDR 3) Depending on the state/local laws, but most police units...
  3. I Spent Two Days With Gen-2 R1 Vehicles. Here’s My Thoughts as a Rivian Owner...

    The spring constant cannot changed, but I was hoping that they had a plan to adjust the constant of the damping to make the ride better. But it turned out that there is so much you can do with just one variable.
  4. I Spent Two Days With Gen-2 R1 Vehicles. Here’s My Thoughts as a Rivian Owner...

    I am with you on this. It is a shame that they missed a simple mark for R1S. They probably just rushed the R1S development by putting the same spring and damper from R1T not considering the wheelbase difference and the weight difference, especially on the rear side. The damping/spring thing is...
  5. I Spent Two Days With Gen-2 R1 Vehicles. Here’s My Thoughts as a Rivian Owner...

    Believe or not, it has gotten much better with the updates. But pilot's ride is still much better in my opinion. It might be my personal take though. I wonder what other R1S owners think.
  6. I Spent Two Days With Gen-2 R1 Vehicles. Here’s My Thoughts as a Rivian Owner...

    Oh yeah, it is worse than the new pilot for sure. It is hard to fathom given the fact it has expensive air suspensions. It was a major let down for me when I picked up my R1S. But again, it was a good deal for the original price prior to the price hike. How can you get a 800 hps car for high...
  7. I Spent Two Days With Gen-2 R1 Vehicles. Here’s My Thoughts as a Rivian Owner...

    I can understand your resentfulness. I think they should provide the software update if the G1 has the necessary hardware. IF THEY THINK that G1 owners will replace their G1 R1s for the turn signal camera and different color scheme just because RIvian blocks the features on G1 R1s, they would...
  8. I Spent Two Days With Gen-2 R1 Vehicles. Here’s My Thoughts as a Rivian Owner...

    The OP's write-up is awesome. I wholly agree that the biggest reason why I would ever consider ditching my R1S with the new one is the suspension. The current suspension truly lacks the ride quality that the vehicle deserves. However, the new pricing of even dual motor performance now exceeds...
  9. Rivian Scale Model Cars Coming Soon ?

    Very cool R1S White Ext White int. 21 ich Any ROM? Thanks
  10. Ride comfort 20 vs 21

    20 AS may be the best option for me as well.
  11. Ride comfort 20 vs 21

    Once the tires' threads get to the point I need to replace them, there will be only one option. I hear that there are many options for 20 inch. Yes, there will be an initial investment for the 2 inch wheels, but it may pay off after 3 tire replacements. But if the 20's NVH is not comparable to...
  12. Ride comfort 20 vs 21

    I am considering to switch my 21 inch with 20 inch. I have not driven 20 inch R1S. Those who have experienced both 21 road and 20 AT, could you please share your thoughts on the ride? Thanks.
  13. Vandalism on Rivian - sharing for awareness

    I appreciate your thoughtful reply. I think the OP will appreciate it, too.
  14. Vandalism on Rivian - sharing for awareness

    There is no excuse for this. Not cool asking this question.
  15. R1S won’t charge

    I had a similar issue. I learned that there was a known issue regarding a defective L2 charging module from the suppliers to Rivian. Rivian had to tow my R1S back to their SC and replace the failed module and tow it back to my home. Rivian's QC is horrible.
  16. How to adjust the Tailgate and Hatch Liftgate on R1S -- DIY video

    I thought this youtube video was very helpful so wanted to share it with you guys. I had the same issue and the SC adjusted it. As they didn't do a perfect job, I might consider adjusting them myself. I am little disappointed that Rivian skipped the step in their QA process to ensure that...
  17. L2 Charging not working

    Out of the blue, Level 2 charging does not work. There are no warning signs or red lights around the charging port. Has anyone experienced this glitch? The service center replaced the L2 charging board component of My R1S a month ago. I still think Rivian is cool. But this would be two...
