I'm not sure how many people realize it, but not updating the manufacturing line for Gen 2 would generally have meant the end of R1 production. A manufacturing entity can't perpetually make a vehicle at a loss and customers would not have paid enough to make the original gen 1 production costs...

I hate that in the future year of 2024 we live in an ever-growing graveyard of abandoned tech. It seems that it costs almost nothing to put wifi PCBs in anything to get someone to buy it based on its supposed features and so easy to cut corners on everything to do with using it because software...

No, my first SC visit was on a flatbed due to a suspension system failure. The towing thing did come as a surprise and I refused to sign the papers with an $1800 charge. I can't say that experience wasn't without its problems but ultimately I got what I wanted and let it go. Oh no, the...

I get the impression mode presets would be more helpful here. Mode C being Offroad/Rally/High and Mode D being Offroad/Rock Crawl/Highest or whatnot. Set by the driver so the driver knows what they are and chooses accordingly with one push. The divide here is going to be that wanting to...

I'd read that the latest update corrected the problem. Initially after I installed the update it was indeed fixed for a while. However it didn't last and the bug returned after the truck woke from sleep. Also no, it's not just turning itself on every 4 hours. It's still doing the same shit...

Owners of dual motors were actually wronged somewhat in this change. I know because I'm in the same boat as everyone else asking not how you turn it off, but how you stop it from turning itself back on. The key thing here is that Rivian didn't tell anyone they were making auto ride height turn...

Assuming that were true, the auto level feature works the same in the quad motor vehicles too. Were they not tested with auto ride height enabled and the dual motors were? Is this 'feature' coming to gen 1 quads too? I'm not buying that this whole thing was a mistake from Feb 2023 onwards. I...

Mine has a software bug where it switches to auto ride height every time you move the shifter and sometimes randomly engages if you do things on the screen. It's been aggravating me quite a bit. Get in and turn it off? Put it in drive and it's back on. Reverse? It's back on. Inexplicably, going...

For those who are talking about the dealership vs direct delivery model, I'd point to the fact that a few years from now the service centers will stop being a cost sink for Rivian as vehicles start to fall out of warranty (yes, I know this terrifies some people) and not almost every visit is...

I had a similar problem immediately after delivery. Had a hole in one of my CV boots that was slinging grease everywhere over the wheel, control arms, fender well, etc. Grease was black in my case. While it's not the only possible source of that particular noise, a clicking in the half shaft...

I don't suppose anyone has technical specs on any of the Elevation speakers? The only thing I've seen so far is a forum post where someone fixing their dash rattle took some helpful pictures. I believe this is a Rivian in-house set because some of the Ebay speakers look identical save they...

I had to go test it. I'd largely given up being able to tune more fidelity out of my own elevation system because no matter what I did, I could never perfect it. Not...unacceptably terrible, just persistently mediocre. It felt like I was struggling in futility against low quality recordings that...

I was in the same boat when I was shopping as well. One thing I'd mention is that many dealers advertise the $7500 EV credit as a discount and roll it into their price. So I'd check to make sure it was $7500 off sticker plus the EV credit. The Rivians still only get $3750 EV credit, assuming you...

As mentioned above, power company rebates will drive selection. Most of them have to be smart-capable in some fashion for scheduled off-peak charging. However if all options are open to you, a charger is largely just a glorified switch and sometimes a lot of what you pay for is for 'smart'...

Yep. Sensor gremlins always after your loose electrons, especially if you park outside. What you're probably dealing with is something on that one bus, and it's hard to say which one without the diagnostic data, randomly entered a fault state on wake. Since it's all in series it knocks out the...

Something similar happened to me actually. My air suspension valve block got stuck, had the service suspension error and lost all my exterior sensors. The reason all your sensors went off as best it was explained to me is that all of them are on the same bus along with either something that...
