  1. 12v Lead Acid Battery Replacement

    Thanks, from what I see in the videos/pics m8 thread seems too large, but if that's what it is I'll go with it. Trying to get the right terminal posts before I dive in there.
  2. 12v Lead Acid Battery Replacement

    Starting to prep for replacing my 2x 12v batteries (2022 R1T). Can anyone confirm the exact size thread of the terminal block to battery post bolt on the original installation? From the Ohmmu video the head is 8mm, and the diameter of the thread looks very small, maybe m4? This is the bolt...
  3. When to proactively replace the 12V batteries before they fail??

    Almost the same situation as you. Sept 22 delivery, 35k miles, and going to service center this Friday for a windshield replacement. I've asked them to 'look; at the 12v but I know that if a problem doesn't pop up in their cloud data then it's unlikely they will change under warranty. If...
  4. ADAS Calibration: Rivian Approves Autel IA900 ADAS Calibration System

    I've got an appointment at the Miami Service Center for a windshield replacement in a couple of weeks. I'd rather go to an approved Collision Center that is much closer to have this work done, as long as they could actually do the calibration there. Anyone had any luck with having the...
  5. Heads up display in Rivians future?

    Rented a car with HUD while traveling over Christmas, couldn't wait to find the switch to turn it off.
  6. Yearly Reminder: shop around on auto and/or home insurance!

    Funny, I saved over $800/6months by switching from Rivian Nationwide to Progressive last month. South Florida, very high coverage policy. Just like the Health Insurance system, the Auto Insurance system is broken.
  7. Michelin Defender M/S 2 vs Defender Platinum Tires

    I've calculated my weekly 400mile drive very diligently for 8k miles with the Platinum's. 1.92m/kWh 60mph average (a lot of 80+mph in this trip) Gen1 R1T Quad in All Purpose. 52-53 lbs cold, 56+ lbs warm
  8. New update, new problems.

    Funny, this happened to me on Monday night this week. My 'hours' left was way higher though, in the 4000s. I stopped, restarted, rebooted phone and truck, and it eventually fixed itself. HOWEVER, this was before I applied the new update last night. So not related to the update, at least...
  9. The Love Bugs on my R1T…..it’s a forced love. Tips to prevent / clean bugs stains?

    I do a once a week Boynton => Orlando => Boynton run. Typically up inland via Okeechobee/Yeehaw and return on 95 south. The bugs on the way up are always bad, but this week was a new record. I can't find a DIY car wash anywhere near my hotel in Orlando, so I went through a drive through for...
  10. Is Road Force Tire Balancing Necessary?

    I had to go back for a Road Force balance one week after installing Michelin Defender LTX Platinum 285/60/20 because of a slight steering wheel shake above 70mph. I had zero shake with the original factory 21's. The new balance all but eliminated the slight wobble. All done at Discount Tire.
  11. How to Improve a Gen 1 Rivian R1S’s Elevation Sound System After Update 2024.27.01 With Simple EQ Changes

    Yea, for my 2022 R1T Meridian this latest 'upgrade' was a downgrade for sure. Over the top bass, missing mids, and I don't really hear anything from the roof speakers in any mode. Hoping for an EQ that works, or maybe corporate fixes it on the next go-round.
  12. Apple Music - Dolby Atmos - Spatial Audio makes a significant difference?

    Gen 1 2022 R1T Meridian System here- It's really touch and go for me. I was happy with the old Amazon HD (paid for) tracks and some Spotify 'highest quality' tracks. Would sometimes turn on 3D for certain tracks, off for others. Had the 63 and 125hz sliders down -2. Now with the update I...
  13. Ceramic over Stealth/Matte/Satin - Good idea or not?

    I did the xPel stealth wrap and ceramic on top back in Sept 22. I didn't go in for the 'annual refresh' at 12 months and went in at 18months. The ceramic did not last, the guy wants to charge me $2k to redo it, I very am unimpressed. I never felt like it was super easy to clean. Still love...
  14. Real efficiency data for Michelin Defender LTX Platinum 285/60/20 on EV Sportline R1000 wheels vs OEM 21"

    Nope, I'm starting at 54psi at 7am in the morning and later while at highway speed with sun and 95 degrees ambient the tire pressure rises to 59psi.
  15. Real efficiency data for Michelin Defender LTX Platinum 285/60/20 on EV Sportline R1000 wheels vs OEM 21"

    Regarding tire pressure for the new LT style tires; I've tried different pressures and have gone as high as 58 around town. I do not like the harsh ride at the high pressures, so brought it down to 54. According to Michelin and Discount Tire even 50psi for the LT satisfies the load rating of...
  16. Real efficiency data for Michelin Defender LTX Platinum 285/60/20 on EV Sportline R1000 wheels vs OEM 21"

    I drive my 2022 R1T Quad on a 390 mile RT to/from my office once/week. Location is South Florida to/from the Orlando area. For testing purposes I’ve used the exact same roads, stops, and speeds (as much as I can control) for each trip. The segment north is 80% single lane state roads (mostly...
  17. 20" Inch Michelin Defender LTX Platinum tires review update!

    2 days ago I installed EV Sportline R1000 wheels with 285/60/20 Platinums mounted. Have only driven 80 or so miles so far. I went with the 285/60 because I wanted a slightly beefier tire than the 21's and am hoping that the increased weight and size don't kill my efficiency too much. I drive...
  18. 20" Inch Michelin Defender LTX Platinum tires review update!
