  1. Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Solution is Coming Soon... (seriously) -- by EV Play

    I was expecting a third party solution to materialize to fill this gap with Rivian (as it did for Tesla) sooner or later, and wishing you the best of luck in getting it finalized and to market.
  2. Apple Music — Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop! (Music starts playing again even after vehicle sleeps)

    Greetings my fellow Rivianauts. I’ve come to enjoy Apple Music since it was mostly fixed in the more recent OTA updates. I find the sound quality really excellent and in general like my Apple Music subscription more so than some others. At any rate, over the last couple weeks or so I’ve...
  3. When will Rivian get CarPlay? Need better Nav and hands free text

    There's no "victim" here. Sheesh. He bought a car with X features and wants one with X+Y features, when he knew or should have known it had X features. It's not at all analogous to wearing a short skirt to a pool hall or walking down a seedy alley alone at night and borrowing that rhetoric is...
  4. Time for new tires - what is the recommended aftermarket tire for 22"?

    This 115/116 debate has been taken up in a few prior threads. I went with the 115s bc they are acceptable by the numbers and indeed the R1S came with them in 2022, despite the extra cushion built into the federal regs for towing vehicles (which bumps up to the 116). It’s hard to see how the...
  5. If you’re letting a tire shop work on your Rivian, watch them like a hawk!

    Anyone know or reasonably able to surmise off-hand what engineering compromises made Rivian design the underbody lift points in this way? Is it the cost of having the battery and underbody shielding in place? Seems like an unforced error if there wasn't something necessitating this unique...
  6. When will Rivian get CarPlay? Need better Nav and hands free text

    The nav has improved a lot since the early days. Rivian leadership has repeatedly stated in multiple public venues and fora that are readily accessible that Rivian will not ever include CarPlay. The reasons and the counters are not all that compelling either way depending on your biases but...
  7. Upgraded the sub in R1S with aftermarket Alpine SWR-T10 Subwoofer

    Wonder to what extent the various recent OTA adjustments to the sound in the Gen1 R1S has affected any of these installs?
  8. Time for new tires - what is the recommended aftermarket tire for 22"?

    I’ve got the Michelin Defenders on my Gen1 R1S quad with 22s (I got the 115 load rating versions which are lighter weight than 116) and have put about 7k miles on them now. My stats: range: almost identical to oem pirellis (2.14 mi/kwh vs 2.17 with the oem) Smoothness: way better. More supple...
  9. Comma AI / OpenPilot Autopilot Progress on R1!

    Based on a couple of responses I saw in the Discord thread concerning Rivian, it sounds like the version they've got working in a Rivian is relying on the unit's own sensors for now, not the full slate of Gen1 sensors and cameras. But it could well be I misunderstood what they were saying, as...
  10. 2024.47.0 Update Spotted!

    Laughter might have to do with how often/immediately it is raised, and how often it has been unconditionally stated by Rivian's powers that be that CarPlay will not ever happen, full stop.
  11. Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) Charging Rate

    So, some questions for you: 1. Did you precondition? [If not, you'll experience lower performance] 2. Did you charge on a shared line? [If so, you'll experience much lower performance] 3. What was your SOC when you began your charge? [The higher your SOC the slower it charges]
  12. I paid the R1S early adopter tax...and am now the owner of a new Gen 2 R1S Dual Max

    The road feel on my Gen1 with 22" wheels noticeably improved when I switched from the stock Pirelli Scorpions to Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2. I might have lost a bit of traction and maybe 0.15 in overall efficiency (previously avg. 2.27 --> now averaging 2.14 for last 3000 miles), but it's...
  13. Educating ourselves on Rivian's autonomous driving history, present, and future

    Always seemed to me that Elon's idea that if human vision is adequate for human drivers, FSD shouldn't need other sensor systems, was pretty faulty logic. But I'm no engineer, just a regular human reasoning with human brain parts.
  14. Rivian lemoned my first vehicle then tried to replace it with another broken one.

    Totally unacceptable for sure and don't blame you for exiting the game and taking back your ante. Hope you can find something else to spend that coin on that's equally cool and fun to drive. That said, the fact you got two sub-par vehicles is hardly an adequate basis to conclude that everyone...
  15. First Big Test of SuperCharger Access Has Arrived

    FWIW I just did a similar trip last weekend (non-holiday): AUS-->Tulsa (Fri), Tulsa-->Little Rock (Sat), and Little Rock-->AUS (Sun). 1250 miles, with 6 Tesla superchargers (Red Oak, Denison, Tulsa Hills Shopping Center, Ozark, New Boston, Waxahachie) and 1 EVgo charger (Benton). No problems...
  16. Rivian 2024.43 OTA update coming this week with new features, fixes, improvements, owl hoot lock sound

    I’m sure this is well known by now, I haven’t read the thread, but confirming this update has fixed my Apple Music bug that I picked up in the .35 update. Pretty pleased with that.
  17. Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 R22 115H installed

    I did at about 77mph. Had them rebalanced and it took care of most of the feedback I was getting. Might be some slight residual vibration still but hardly noticeable now.
  18. 2024.43.0 Update now in UAT (User Acceptance Testing)

    "Fixed an issue that caused Apple Music to fail to play audio." Fingers crossed that solves my issue!
  19. 2024.43.0 Update now in UAT (User Acceptance Testing)

    I had a mobile tech at my place today specifically to address my version of the Apple Music bug. He was unable to fix it but assured me it was supposed to be resolved in the OTA when .43 rolls out. That'll be nice if so, but I'm not holding my breath.
