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...
No locations nearby me, but I didnāt even know this sort of business was a thing. I guess Iāll google leather/vinyl repair and see what a professional can do.
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, Iām 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...
No, I mean āRegenerative Breaking Assistā under the āDriver+ā subheading. Just be warnedāthe car, when too cold or when highly charged, isnāt going to break as much as you expect when you take your foot off the gas.
Hereās a screenshot of the setting:
I noticed when I accepted delivery that the rear, driver-side door was extremely difficult to closeāit needs to be slammed shut. Not even remotely close to any of the other doors on the vehicle, or any other vehicle Iāve ever had experience with in my life. The guy at Rivian told me itād break...
I donāt know if this matters, but Iāve read thatāwhen doing thisāyou need to buy adapters that specifically state theyāre for EVs versus appliances. Your linked adapter does not appear to be for EVs. Again, no clue why itād matter, but worth some research.
That said, get an appropriate 30 amp...
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.
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...
Iām 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...
Iām sure this has been asked a dozen times, but I canāt 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 Iām in a store without using āpet mode,ā similar to Tesla? I mean, pet mode works, but Iād prefer not to...
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 itās fantastic.
