  1. Self drive and current R2

    Anyone who is expecting robust autonomy and parity with Tesla is grossly ignoring the obvious: Tesla's has been in development much longer than anyone else and has not sold that knowledge to anyone else. Everyone as to start somewhere and not everyone is at the same stage of their development...
  2. Poll: How often do you use your frunk?

    Rare but not because I don't like it. It's just that it's not convenient due to majority of parking situations. And some parking lots here in SoCal are too small to even open doors.
  3. R2 outside financing

    And those days may never return. I even doubt we will ever see 2% again.
  4. Tesla promotes FSD misuse

    More pointless arguing on Tesla? Illogical to accuse info outlets of being biased if majority of news on Tesla is negative. It's only accurate if any of these outlets cover only the negative ones and add editorial to exaggerate and even spin positives into negatives. I have no loyalty to...
  5. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    I think there is another round underway. Mine was preemptively replaced during unrelated appointment at start of ā€˜24. Then again earlier this year after receiving a message from Rivian. I take this to mean it’s possible service life (single) could be not much longer than 1.5 years. But that’s...
  6. TPMS Error

    Different. You are not being shown overall system error. If you move that tire to a different corner and the issue follows it, then you know it’s a bad sensor. If issue stays in that corner then it’s probably a bad receiver at that corner. Last I looked tpmsbargains.com has OE sensor made by...
  7. Rivian Apple Watch app is officially here! āŒšļø

    Don’t think so. The Watch app is more or less a remote for the phone app. So if you sign out of the phone app, it’s like trying to use a TV remote to turn on a TV that’s been unplugged.
  8. Using the Rivian portable charger with a generator

    Something like this neutral ground bonding plug? https://erayakpower.com/products/30a-rv-generator-neutral-ground-bonding-plug
  9. Interior Color Question for any Rivian Owners

    Depends 100% on your use and care. Lots will tell you to go ahead. But there are also posts of people asking about how to remove stains. The material may be engineered to be stain-resistant, but that isn’t the same as stain-proof. Hardly anything is actually stain-proof. Even stainless steel can...
  10. Would you go with 20" wheels or 21" wheels on Launch Edition R2?

    And curbs. Plus, if you look at 20 and 21 options for Premium trim—both shod with Pirelli MS all-season—there is no difference in EPA estimated range (330). If range/efficiency is preferred, swap the BFGs out at your tire shop when they are done. Easy. Peasy. No overthinking needed.
  11. TPMS Error

    Or harness not fully plugged in. Lots of possibilities.
  12. TPMS Error

    Doubt it. Each corner has a receiver. And each wheel has a TPMS (including full size spare, if that’s what one has). Each TPMS sensor has non-rechargeable and non-serviceable battery sealed within. It’s possible a bad batch (or soon to expired batch) got sent to Rivian. But that’s unusual...
  13. TPMS Error

    That again points to communication issues at the vehicle. Not sensors.
  14. Rear Bumper Cover Replacement (DIY?)

    Nope. Not accessible unless you pay for it or shared out of kindness by those who paid for it. It will be a long long time before Rivian loosen their grip. The oldest of these cars are only 4 years old.
  15. Tesla promotes FSD misuse

    Shocked. Shocked, I tell you. /s
  16. How does Gen1 decide what roads and when highway assist is available?

    Class action lawyers fishing for a pay day. If it goes anywhere, it would be settled out of court so Rivian doesn’t have to own up to anything. A nice fat check for law firm, a few cents for each class participant. Click bait for bloggers and stock shorts.
  17. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    They have played with the BMS to balance responsiveness against vampire drain. And certain OTAs had unintended consequences of higher VD or incorrect BMS. I don’t think it’s malicious or one single cause, but a list of reasons… including platform decisions that may not have been best, but too...
  18. Buzzing when charging - behind left headlight

    Could be normal (coolant pump), just new to you. What ambient temperature?
  19. TPMS Error

    And if you want to try, TPMS tool costs about $170. Note brand and model. Available elsewhere. https://rivianservicetools.com/Catalog/Product/TSN00442-100-A?groupId=31 But, unless vehicle was built with bad batch of sensors, it’s unusual for all 4 to not be picked up. I’m inclined to think the...
