  1. Instructions: How to change rear wiper blade on R1S (with pictures!)

    From the other thread I read, I'm not even close to being alone in this experience. I was emotionally prepared for this to happen.
  2. Instructions: How to change rear wiper blade on R1S (with pictures!)

    I saw a lot of threads discussing this topic, which is evidently less intuitive than one would think, so I figured I'd make my own photo diary of how this is done. Step 1: Locate the rear wiper (on the back of your Rivian R1S). Step 2: Pop off the plastic cap covering the nut by gently...
  3. A2Z Adapter Recall: Typhoon v1 Exchange Program

    My replacement adapter came today, but it didn't come with instructions to return the old one. Do I just throw it away?
  4. 2024.19.04 software update now installing! Share your impressions & reviews

    Probably a coincidence, but my update started shortly after I restarted my car by holding down both steering wheel buttons.
  5. Fixing torn faux leather

    No locations nearby me, but I didn’t even know this sort of business was a thing. I guess Iā€˜ll google leather/vinyl repair and see what a professional can do.
  6. Fixing torn faux leather

    I apparently tore a bit of the faux leather in the back of my R1S when transporting something in the back. Having gone through all the various stages of grief, I’m now wondering if is there any recommended product/glue I could seal the hole with to avoid it getting bigger (e.g. from kids pulling...
  7. Mechanical-sounding Clicking from Accelerator Pedal

    No, I mean ā€œRegenerative Breaking Assistā€ under the ā€œDriver+ā€ subheading. Just be warned—the car, when too cold or when highly charged, isn’t going to break as much as you expect when you take your foot off the gas. Here’s a screenshot of the setting:
  8. R1S Rear, Driver-Side Door Very Difficult to Close

    This seems to be an effective workaround while I figure out how much this bothers me.
  9. R1S Rear, Driver-Side Door Very Difficult to Close

    I noticed when I accepted delivery that the rear, driver-side door was extremely difficult to close—it needs to be slammed shut. Not even remotely close to any of the other doors on the vehicle, or any other vehicle I’ve ever had experience with in my life. The guy at Rivian told me it’d break...
  10. R1S not charging from a dryer plug

    I don’t know if this matters, but I’ve read that—when doing this—you need to buy adapters that specifically state they’re for EVs versus appliances. Your linked adapter does not appear to be for EVs. Again, no clue why it’d matter, but worth some research. That said, get an appropriate 30 amp...
  11. Mechanical-sounding Clicking from Accelerator Pedal

    After reading bhlackey's post about it starting after the break assist update, I experimented by disabling breaking assist. The problem IMMEDIATELY stopped. Assuming you're okay without breaking assist, that appears to be the solution.
  12. Mechanical-sounding Clicking from Accelerator Pedal

    I have a two-week old Rivian R1S, Dual Motor, Large Battery pack, with around 700 miles on it. I don't recall this being an issue when I first picked it up, but over the last week I've noticed that there's often a mechanical-sounding "clicking" noise when the accelerator pedal is depressed or...
  13. Newbie Duh Charging Question

    I’m going to piggyback on this thread with my noob question, since my previous car was a Tesla and everything was easy: I have the Electrify America app on my iPhone available on Apple Pay, which I understand will allow me to use EA chargers by tapping my phone. I put $20 on EA and set it up to...
  14. Is there a “hold temperature” feature apart from pet mode?

    I’m sure this has been asked a dozen times, but I can’t seem to find the right combination of words to pull up a result. Is there a way for me to have the Rivian hold cabin temperature while I’m in a store without using ā€œpet mode,ā€ similar to Tesla? I mean, pet mode works, but I’d prefer not to...
  15. Rivian R1 Shop or wait for configuration to be built

    I checked the shop several times a day until a Dual Motor R1S with a Large pack came available, which took about a week, and then placed an order. Took another two weeks to get it and it’s fantastic.
