  1. What is up w/service lead time?

    91 days out for a few issues I called in 6 days ago. This is for the Bellevue Wa SC
  2. R1S Buzz Saw Sound

    My son said something similar. If it were and ICE vehicle i would probably still hear it.
  3. R1S Buzz Saw Sound

    Here is a video of the sound. Sent the same to Rivian today. This is in the 0-25 MPH range.
  4. R1S Buzz Saw Sound

    I will do one here in a bit!
  5. R1S Buzz Saw Sound

    After I drive for 10-15 min the right rear of my R1S starts to sound like a buzz saw. It actually gets pretty loud. The noise is induced by any sort of acceleration. The faster the car goes the faster the buzz saw goes. When at highway speed it’s just a constant buzz. and coasting I can’t...
  6. Sub-Zero Headwind Road Trip... How much of a Riviot can I be?

    M My hope is down hill with a tail wind offsets cold as hell. Looking for at least the performance I got on the way over. I will keep and eye out for ya. Safe travels.
  7. Sub-Zero Headwind Road Trip... How much of a Riviot can I be?

    I’m currently in Rathdrum ID. Will be returning to Seattle tomorrow morning. Looks like it will be 1 F when we leave. ABRP shows just a stop in Ellensburg. When we came over Sunday it was in the 40s with a bit of a head wind. I am interested to see the difference the temp will make. I’m...
  8. Brake Caliper Cleaning - Tips / Tricks ?

    Thanks. Confirms what I am seeing as well. It’s just really tight in there. I am super OCD about my cars. A wooden dowel with a microfiber wrapped around it sort of works but it’s a painful process. I hate to go to pure chemicals for the long haul. Not really a brake dust thing. The...
  9. Brake Caliper Cleaning - Tips / Tricks ?

    I have the large and the medium ones. Neither fit well. Will buy the small one and give it a shot. Thanks very much!
  10. Brake Caliper Cleaning - Tips / Tricks ?

    Anyone have any tips/tricks to easily clean the brake calipers? The clearance is the tightest I have seen on any vehicle I have owned. Spent like 15 min per wheel trying to thread a cloth around in there. It’s just not very accessible. I have a brush that I use on my other cars but it...
  11. Newbie questions: Set up key fob? Connecting Rivian to my iPhone hotspot?

    In my opinion there isn’t really a use case for tethering to a phone. It connects but as soon as you put it in drive WiFi shuts off. They need to change the behavior but if they want to sell LTE data plans it’s a brilliant move.
  12. Tesla to open 20% of US Superchargers to all EVs by end of 2024, qualifying company for share of billions in federal dollars

    EA also did the bare minimum to meet their obligations. The charger availability trend is positive. The implementation maybe not so much it seems. Nobody really wants to go all in. From a business perspective I get why they do the minimum. As a consumer it’s disappointing.
  13. Rivian Top Speed Too Low?

    What does this have to do with top speed?
  14. Why doesn't Rivian badge the Quad?

    Do we know the dual motor does not have different badging?
  15. Amy Mast (Rivian communications director) has left for Ford

    I’m personally shocked they even had a communications director. This is not a strength for the company. Pretty sure they can improve with better leadership.
  16. Welp, destroyed my mobile charger

    Water and electronic devices isn’t usually the end of the world. Water, electronics and electricity is the real killer. Do what you can to dry it out. Then wait a week longer and give it a shot. You might be pleasantly surprised. Best of luck
  17. Volvo EX90 could be worthy competitor to R1S

    “It will be delivered in less than a year”. Bold statement these days. I’d take a bet they won’t hit it. Nothing against Volvo. It’s the times we live in.
  18. Make It Make Sense

    Or Rivian was making Nash! That would explain the timeline as well!
  19. Make It Make Sense

    Oct 21 and now a delivery? I had to wait 3 years! Obviously Martin is having a great year!
