  1. Gen 2 Audio Issues: balance/fade is off / imbalanced

    I believe ā€œSpatial Audioā€ is Dolby Atmos. I couldn’t find a unique setting for Dolby. When playing a song in Apple Music app on Rivian, the ā€œDolby Atmosā€ badge would appear beneath the song title and it sounded awful. Once I disabled Spatial Audio, I no longer see the Dolby badge under song...
  2. Gen 2 Audio Issues: balance/fade is off / imbalanced

    Good luck! After I made that change, it actually sounds great. Like speakers I thought weren’t working now suddenly are. I went into Apple Music app settings on the Rivian screen (open Apple Music and tap person icon in top right) and disabled Spatial Audio. I have Gen 2 with premium audio, by...
  3. Gen 2 Audio Issues: balance/fade is off / imbalanced

    Thanks for sharing! I forgot to update my own thread on this (I posted elsewhere), but turning off Spatial Audio in the Rivian sound settings made a 80% improvement in sound. Everything is so much better. Steer clear of that and Dolby Atmos, and then Apple Music app on Rivian screen sounds...
  4. Rivian 2024.43 OTA update coming this week with new features, fixes, improvements, owl hoot lock sound

    Not sure if anyone has said this (I haven’t read the entire thread) but I’ve been experiencing the same thing in my 5 months of ownership. I only just found the fix. I went into Apple Music app settings on the Rivian screen (open Apple Music and tap person icon in top right) and disabled...
  5. iOS Rivian app update is ready, including Halloween Costume feature

    Yeah, also noticed it disappeared from the app. I think they had to pull it because the Gen 2s started actually time traveling.
  6. New update, new problems.

    There is a NFC reader in there. I kinda wonder if one day they’ll build a feature that lets you pay there via Apple Pay for fast charging (non Rivian or Tesla) or something? That’d be cool I guess.
  7. New update, new problems.

    Anyone else with Gen 2 notice that after software update, iPhone is continuously prompted for Apple Pay when it’s on wireless charger?
  8. My R1S headlights kinda suck on dark roads

    My R1S was recently at the service center and they said there’s an active service campaign to check headlights because some are set too low (not sure if this was specific to Gen 2) so they’ll check and adjust for you. Just put in a ticket.
  9. Apple Watch with Gen2 R1S?

    Yes, concur with above. I actually just asked Rivian support this very question because Apple Watch as a Key is in the ads. They confirmed that hasn’t been released yet and is coming later.
  10. Gen 2 Audio Issues: balance/fade is off / imbalanced

    Sorry you’re experiencing the same issue, but it’s a MASSIVE relief that it’s not just me, which gives me hope it’s a software issue and not hardware. I’m hopeful for the update as well, but it’s under the Apple Music heading so I wasn’t sure if the fix was specific to that app. I experience...
  11. Gen 2 Audio Issues: balance/fade is off / imbalanced

    Oh interesting! Thanks for sharing. Curiously, I notice it when playing via Bluetooth, but it’s even MORE noticeable if playing from Apple Music app in Dolby. Especially podcasts or someone speaking, sounds like they’re talking from the front right speakers. I’m going to be taking it back and...
  12. Gen 2 Audio Issues: balance/fade is off / imbalanced

    Hi, all! I have a Gen 2 R1S with the upgraded premium audio system. Since delivery, itā€˜s almost like the balance/fade is off (it’s definitely set to center in settings), with most of the sound coming from the front right of the vehicle. When sitting in driver seat, the left side is noticeably...
  13. ? Gen 2 Rivian Service Question!

    I went by today just to see if they’d release it, and coincidentally the part arrived last night and it was ready to pick up! So it all worked out after all!
  14. ? Gen 2 Rivian Service Question!

    Yeah, I’ll give it a try today. The loaner is a four seat sedan, which doesn’t exactly replace the R1S. But at this point, it’s been sitting in their lot longer than I’ve gotten to have it and I’m still paying for it.
  15. ? Gen 2 Rivian Service Question!

    If you’re not going to say something kind or helpful, stop posting.
  16. Gen 2 R1S Delivery Woes

    For sure! I love Rivian, its mission and people, and am 100% behind the company and these cars! Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge Rivian fan! Just a bummer to have problems day one after waiting for years. I know they’ll make it right, just a bit up in the air until they do. With proximity...
  17. Gen 2 R1S Delivery Woes

    That’s exactly what I’ve been worried about! Especially since it’s having all these issues so far. I’m supposed to hear back today on a time I could maybe drop it off. Now proximity locking has gone haywire. I had it set to ā€œLock onlyā€ at home but it was still unlocking when I approached. I’ve...
  18. Anyone have to use the SOS button yet?

    For what it’s worth, they seem to have taken feedback and fixed this with Gen 2! The SOS button is now a series of two presses. You press the button first, which pops out to reveal it’s just a plastic cover. You then flick the cover down and press the big tempting button inside. It’s very...
  19. Gen 2 R1S Delivery Woes

    Thanks, all! Really appreciate the feedback and encouragement. I did pour through the owner’s manual before it arrived, and after looking for steps yesterday. I did try the screen reset but that didn’t solve the issue. I also tried the vehicle reset but couldn’t even perform that function...
