Really wonder what can be done to solve this. My wife joked that we should just take our Q990C soundbar and put it in the rivian lol. Sounds infinitely better and cost less than 50% of what the Premium Audio upgrade did. At this point, I should have just saved the money on Premium Audio and gone...
I’ll have to play with these settings. My issue is that voices sound muddy and it is very obvious it’s all coming from the center channel. In my Model Y the sound seems pretty immersive throughout, but in the R1S it just seems so directional and obvious that it is coming from the center of the...
Was setting up the Drive Cam and noticed Gear Guard captured a video of our R1S being loaded onto the train for delivery.
Also, bonus picture of the very precise pool noodle alignment tool.
I have a Gen2 R1S DM Max, seeing about 0.3% per day. Car is in the garage and I have been in and out frequently, taking pictures of things for the SC, and just playing with the car since it is new.
Car will sleep unless I mess with it or approach it, last night it slept for 14 hours with no wakes.
Looks like I should add this to my mobile service visit next week and see if they can get it aligned better. Since the PPF is already damaged I will have to live with cutting the corners, but hopefully that keeps the paint from coming off.
For those of you that trimmed the PPF, how does it look now after two years?
I’m having the same issue and my detailer is concerned about it rubbing / chipping the paint if we trim the corners.
I could try to go the realignment route as well, but it’s already an issue and chewed up the PPF on...
EV Sportline said the running boards would fit ok if you have the underbody shield, but if you don't have the all terrain package / underbody shield, that there might be fitment issues? They allowed me to return them, and I will be ordering the newer fitment ones.
Although your comment here...
I will say that little chrome trim piece in your last photo, mine seemed a little off as well. But the A Pillar below that is flush with the rest of the car.
I think my only gripe has been some paint issues and scratched trim pieces. There were some paint runs under the shadow of the door on...
I just took delivery on Saturday of an R1S with the Dynamic Roof. It was probably 80F outside and a clear sunny day. Definitely a significant difference in heat transmitted through the roof glass between the 2nd and 3rd rows.
While sitting in the 2nd row I didn't really notice the overhead heat...
Sounds like you exposed a flaw that probably would have caused you issues later on down the line. Better to get it out of the way now than on a road trip or something!
Ordered July 10th from the shop, August 10th delivery scheduled. VIN 515XX.

I’m going off of what TeslaFi is telling me, and have been tracking the battery stats from when I picked up the car until now. Not sure how much of a fudge factor Tesla includes in their readings from the API.
This is actually exactly how it should be done.
There are two main categories of degradation for batteries.
1) charge cycles
2) calendar aging (accelerated by high temps and storage at high SOC or extremely low SOC)
Calendar aging has a large impact on battery life in the beginning, and...
What VIN number are you if you don't mind me asking?
We had our Gen 2 order get delayed and got a new VIN, it's now 515XX. Hopefully the issue with your car isn't systemic and only happened on a few vehicles, but you never know.
