It's kind of a suspicious timeline. I wonder if the The ones from 2023 were the old load rating and they stopped making them and now the ones he shows in July are going to be the new load rating?
Just came up in another thread and I had made the write up so I thought I would make it its own thread for anyone in the future...
Mod, you might want to pin it to sticky in the forums (sticky... See what I did there?) ?
Some of the weather stripping on the rear lift gate of our March 2023...
Yup, we use camp mode a lot at practice for one kid while the other two are working on their school laptops in the R1S. It's perfect for keeping the climate, radio, and WiFi going without the rest and not timing out either
Some of the weather stripping on the rear lift gate of our March 2023 R1S started to loosen and let go about a month ago. That happens on most cars after many years but obviously this is too early for our cars. I suspect they must have had a problem with the volume or misture at the time with...
So according to one of the youtube videos the person replaces the battery and then says to NOT reboot the car after doing so. he said you will get a lot of lights, but to put the Rivian in drive and drive it for just a couple of feet and the lights will disappear. I was looking at an R1S video...
I know that Wassym is a software guy, but what if everyone made sure to get the questions if they are aware, what are they going to do about, etc in the AMA n Reddit today?
It seems the gear IT j1772 adapter keeps getting sold out, but they have a pigtail style one for almost the same price. Some might even like it better so added the link.
I wonder if there is a run on some of these components with summer travel and more EVs <gets tinfoil hat>
No, that requires a j1772 adapter which is for AC and the A2Z one talked about here is for DC.
A2Z makes one of those, many here like the kectron brand, I like the gearit brand one on Amazon for around $40
Yea, someone else would have to comment on the original vs the 2. I think it might be a case where the original were just so legendary that the 2 doesn't get as good of reviews, but they are still great compared to most other tires out there. There are some articles and videos out there that...
Yup, I have rotated my 20 inch Pirelli's twice and they have 13k miles and are howling. I've never liked Pirellis because they are sensitive to rotations, don't perform that great, wear fast, but every new car I have comes with them as OEMs. I have a road trip later in the month I need to get...
Michelin defender LTX/ms2 is what you want. They are exceptional across the board and you can put auto socks on them if you ever are going into chains only conditions to a ski resort or something
Problem is they don't come out in the size we need until the end of summer. A lot of us have been...
I think a savage move would be forr them to announce the refresh today and push the update to everyone tonight
It would be a great "one more thing moment"
After hearing so much about these difficulties I made a point last weekend when testing out mine for the first time to exercise the adapter by seating it/locking it, and reseating it/locking it about 30 times on the Tesla charger.
I'm not sure if it made a difference because I was so intent on...
