  1. Stripped TP55 Bolt - how to extract?

    I had a similar issue with a smaller torx screw I couldn't remove from the jounce line. I measured with the wrench and cut the edges off precisely with the angle grinder, so it was fitting in the wrench 🔧. Then I was able to un-wrench it. I would be careful on your case as it's very close to the...
  2. Hydraulic Suspension maintenance - Drain and refill

    Hi @HotPocket, thank you so much! I made my own version which is similar to yours, watching the Hollywood mechanic video probably about 100 times so far. I can make some improvements, since I used cheap Harbor Freight valves. I just bled and refilled the suspension this weekend and the errors...
  3. Rear suspension damage

    Thanks again @Nixapatfan for all the details. I finally removed the pump and refilled it with fluid to the brim. It was a royal pain to remove it from the housing. (I needed to separate the grommet by holding the pipe on the side of the pump and pulling the grommet away from the plastic, to...
  4. Rear suspension damage

    Did you have to remove the line going to the solenoid assembly to remove the pump out of the housing? I took the pump down and removed all the clips holding it . It seemed like bump doesn't want to move out of the housing. I didn't want to yank it out because I wasn't sure if anything else is...
  5. Rear suspension damage

    @Nixapatfan I did blow compressed air through All the lines separately. However, Can you please explain to me like to a child how to disassemble the air compressor pump once I take it out of the housing. I cannot find the reservoir tank cap and with all the foam I cannot find a way to easily...

    Thanks for a.detailed.review. did have to buy adapters for battery terminals separately or they came with the battery?
  7. Ohmmu Sodium 12 V or Rivian SLA

    Hi all, did anyone had experience with new Ohmmu Sodium 12 volt battery? I'm due for a 12v battery replacement (warning in the app) and I'm debating between Rivian stock SLA 12v ($255) or Ohmmu Sodium new tech for ($360) with 3 year warranty.
  8. VION Giveaway: Win R1S/R1T Roof Sunshades + Gray Option Available Now!

    Gen1 R1T here! The grey shade looks lit, but I do need a filter change as well. Thanks @VION
  9. Rear suspension damage

    I appreciate your detailed reply! I went back to instructions from the Rivian and looked if I could combine the RIDE draining the system and refilling it using the custom made Pump contraption. I did buy the original female NPT valve connectors and I'll reinstall instead of Swagelock ones...
  10. Rear suspension damage

    Thank you @Nixapatfan! I will try this today. I was so close to get it done yesterday, but I got discouraged when I saw the pump and didn't want to do anything that could damage it. Do you know if I can replace the valves back to original ones, or those lines will also be pressurized once I...
  11. Rear suspension damage

    Hey DIYers, please help me out on the pump refill, before draining all the lines and doing the whole procedure. I assembled the drain and refill machine, like @The_Skg did in this thread and from Hollywood Mechanic video, even replaced the valves with Swag lock QC4. However, when I opened the...
  12. How to tow a Salvage R1T

    Hi fellow rebuilders, for those of you who had to deal with replacing airbags and seatbelts in a rebuild. Did you replace the RCM module per guidelines in oem1stop, or you just replaced the SRS components after the codes were cleared in RIDE and used the original RCM module? I can clear the...
  13. Rear suspension damage

    Yeah, it is ridiculously expensive that they cannot load the car properly. Although I heard horrible stories from my friend who repairs ICE vehicles; when they're buying cars from Copart in a run and drive condition, but still loading with forklift - e.g. the tire is blown so they cannot drive it.
  14. Rear suspension damage

    That's a neat looking R1T @viperbmw69. Did you end up rebuilding your suspension? I bought the parts through Rivian. My car had a side impact where the Gear tunnel door, rear passenger door and the wheel were damaged. Interesting enough, I replaced the rear door and it fits just fine, it closes...
  15. Hydraulic Suspension maintenance - Drain and refill

    Hi @HotPocket and @Groovian, I found useful information on this post and I'm in a similar situation with leaking jounce lines. Could you help me complete the build on the drain and refill machine? I got the Vacuum resin trap 3 Gal from Amazon, and a small vacuum pump. I'm planning to get the...

  17. Group Buy/Purchase for a Rivian Service Account with Access to RiDE Software Salvage Titles where are you?

    Hi Mark, yes I did and the car runs fine after clearing the post-collision codes in ride. I believe this code is for the squib in the HV battery compartment. I'm not sure if there will be charging issues due to the this. I read that this is a common issue where people had a Battery Critical...
  18. Group Buy/Purchase for a Rivian Service Account with Access to RiDE Software Salvage Titles where are you?

    Any of you guys who restored some of these R1's from salvage had a DTC code for the HV Pyro Switch squib open? DTC: C133193. The car has a 70% of battery left, but I'm not sure if it will take charge due to this code. (I'm waiting on the charger which I had to buy separately). Am I cooked?
  19. BestEvMod’s April Giveaway

    I love the versatility and all the cool stuff this car is capable off. I'm the new owner, so I'm still in a discovery phase and reminds me of an era when 3GS iPhone came out and that was like a new experience every day. With Rivian is more like learning something new with every software update! :)
  20. How to tow a Salvage R1T

    Yeah, I was bummed out to find out the video of the accident on the GearCam video gallery, since from the outside it doesn't look like it took a significant hit. That was definitely a serious hit, although the other car didn't look like it was moving too fast. I'm waiting on the door to arrive...
