  1. If front half shafts were just replaced will the rear likely follow?

    Thx for your reply, So I gather gen 2 half shafts can not replace gen 1. i will just have to have it checked each time I go in. For me the slop was subtle, but was hoping for a definitive resolution before the warranty ends.
  2. If front half shafts were just replaced will the rear likely follow?

    On routine service my front half shafts were replaced. I had noticed a bit of a klunk going beteen acceleration and regen. SC said that the rear were OK and did not need replacement. They noted that problems are mainly related to just the front. Would appreciate any comments as to why this...
  3. Tesla Model Y. Rivian One Pedal Driving wins - hands down.

    Rarely use the brakes with my R1S. But also, rarely ever used them with my ICE vehicle. Not using them with the R1 S has been much safer.

  5. 2023 R1S: Two distinct clicks when releasing the brake pedal at <10 MPH (Stop-and-Go)

    Just had my front half shafts and hubs replaced. Did not sound like that and was more of a klunk with acceleration/regen Switching. I do hear a faint noise with the auto hold. But not as prominent as what’s in your video.
  6. Rivian service rant - busted home charger

    Sorry you’re dealing with this. Have you tried your portable charger just to be sure it’s not the vehicle?
  7. 12V Battery Replacement Megathread

    I keep this in my frunk in case my 12 V dies while I am away. I have tools in the trailer hitch so I can enter the vehicle if it’s dead. By all measurements I think it should be a drop in replacement. But I’ve never had the opportunity or need to test it yet. Soonish posts with spacers. I 3-D...
  8. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    Thanks, I have a 23 quad. So not sure whether I have to worry about the rear axles still?
  9. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    Based on this post I realized that I indeed had some clunking when going from acceleration to regen. When I brought the car in for routine service I asked them to check it and they found play in the front half shafts and hubs so they replaced them. Ride seems much better. They felt the rears...
  10. Difficult dealing with Rivian Service

    While I wish I could communicate directly with people at my local service center. I have found the people on the app to be attentive and efficient at setting up my appointments. I’m sorry you’re having a bad experience. I don’t think of it as the norm.

    Really enjoyed using the $7,500 rebate more than I expected.
  13. Would you still buy your Rivian today?

    Yes, I would buy it again. Amazing vehicle at the preorder pricing. Minimal maintainence and huge gas savings. I never want to drive ICE again. When ordered I wanted to replace my 18 year old LX470. There was nothing , and still is nothing like it other than the S. I know the tech is already...

    I feel your joy/ pain. Just moved my daughter from NYC to MD. Filled every nook. Was amazed that we could fit it all in. Next move she either need a mover or a boyfriend !!
  16. Fun "Critical Battery Issue" on vacation

    Can only empathize. Sorry you’re going through this. I’m at 14 K no issues. But I hate hearing stories like yours. I do hope that Rivian will make everything right and that you will continue to love your vehicle.
  17. Rivian R1S Gen 2 Charging Recommendations

    If you have a standard Pac, it is usually LFP. Which occasionally does need to be charged to calibrate readings. I believe the large pack is NMC, which you do not need to put to 100% unless you want to. On YouTube, there is a channel called engineering explained that does a very good job...
  18. R1S Sub-Trunk - What's Under the Covers?

    When the tech came to install my inflatable spare, he easily just took out those plastic pieces and the whole liner came out. The spare comes with its own liner, which goes back in.I can’t recall if there’s extra space under that specific area ( though I doubt it) that you’re looking at, but...
