I was charging at night yesterday and had this 'speed limited by charging station' message. The rivian provided adapter was very hot at the end of the session... I ll try the typhoon a2z later to compare...
I have the same issue with my phone since day one, i believe it might be phone Bluetooth power related but have not bothered reinitialysing all my Wi-Fi Bluetooth settings yet to confirm. I use the key fob anyways...
So 1 week after the update to 18.1, after adjusting the air vent directions slightly on the highway, this happened :
All screen commands frozen, only odometer, blinkers, doors, works basic stuff work...
Hard reset fixed it all.
.... it was playing 'staying alive' at that computer crash moment :)
Driver + has a bug in fw2025.10.1. it started beeping on the highway before a short highway area without painted lines of about 100 ft. (Between Erie,PA and Buffalo,NY.) It beeped twice, then started braking the vehicle violently before i had even the time to realise what was happening and why...
The only unawkward position was a broken charger ... Which i tried first... Then i did the "rear out" parking at this charger for the 10 mins i needed to charge in Cincinnati, ky. (Last mandatory few kWh of the 640 mi trip)
Amazingly, electrafi says we did 2.5-2.7mi/kWh on the last 300 pm...
More ice/snow pics from buffalo s icing rain this mid february 2025.
I had to hit on the door handles to break some ice for it to open. The charge port was very icy too.
Did some skiing today :)
It appears that the rivian central screen map has more details about trails than googlemaps ! The below shown trails are more populated in the rivian.

FW 2024.51.01, R1s
2 weeks ago, we had deeply cold weather (-21c) at an rbnb without a possibility to charge nearby and my wife left the r1s passenger door slightly opened (the first click i guess) without me knowing. This made the climate control stay on with the battery at 15.6% after our...
The rear screen can not be locked/unlocks on it s own after each restart since fw 2024.51.01 on gen 1.
And as seen on the picture, while it appears on the front screen to be locked, it really is not. ( Sorry for the poor picture)
My kids are disrupting all settings when they have access to the...
Snowmobile vs rivian :)
Snow mode is pretty good on deep snow but i think the snowmobile still wins !
500 mi/h... Yikes
The motors had preconditionned the battery to ~17C and were super hot at about 120C on the short way to the charger. I would not use conserve mode doing preconditioning when...
Organic polymer Plastics become microplastics after time ( physical and chemical attacks) and there is even a gathering of those floating in an ocean. ( PC, PP, PTFE, PS, etc microplastic pollutants are not hundred of years old.) At that point the original physical shape and modulus are not...
A few words to summarize:
Plastics are not forever.
Enjoy.
- note i will not lower myself responding to the cynicism expressed previously. Edit: some of it seem to have been removed from the post now :)
From a quick google overgeneralizzzation: whatever man ;)
