Took my first decently long trip out into the country in my '22 R1T. In my boredom, I couldn't help but wonder how the Gen1 highway assist decides when it's available or not. I was mainly on state routes, much of the time it was 4 lane divided highways with clear lane lines and highway assist...
So I bought my Rivian with about 40k on it. First checked Rivian roamer after the winter while reasonably warm and was sitting around 128.4kWh capacity, pretty good only losing about 3kWh (2%) over 4 years and 40k miles. It was around 128kWh last week, took my first big charge round trip of...
Noticed this clicking when backing out of my garage the last week or so. Doesn't seem to matter which way I turn not if I'm backing or forward. Wheel at the extremes of turns and slow speeds clocks like this. Is this a normal Rivian things or one of the many to be expected repairs like a half...
Anyone else notice a slight bump in charge rate since the new update? I have a 48A charger and previously saw reported charge rates of 11.0kW consistently. Since the most recent update I'm getting 11.3kW. nothing else is changed, doesn't make much difference but wondering if they either tweaked...
Now that I have Truckdor back from the shop, I added my personal Google calendar. However, a lot of our events are on a shared family calendar and not the "my calendar" calendar. So it's not recognizing these events, on the ones I create that I only add to my own calendar. Is there a way to get...
Since Truckdor the Drivenator ('22 LE Quad R1T) is in the shop getting some suspension and water intrusion evaluations, I've finally gotten my hands on a Gen 2 R1S (TriMax -Ascend trim). I'm sure there's dozens of threads on this but I'm bored and figured i'd add my own thoughts.
Gen 2 Tri Pros...
We are sitting in the car avoiding the rain during my son's soccer practice. Tried to chromecast Disney+ from my phone for my daughter and it's unwatchable, like 1-2 frames per second. We have Connect+ and decent signal as well as good 5G in my cell. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I just...
Man I love this truck but it would be real nice to go more than a month or so without something new coming up.
Getting ready to clean out the bed and dropped the tailgate and the plastic trim on top just fell off. Seems some brittle glue underneath just gave up... Add it to the list for my next...
Hey all,
Trying out my A2Z J1772 extension today and out of an abundance of caution was going to cap the charge rate at 36A instead of the usual 48A. I'm using a TUWC. I have set the Rivian to 36A but it keeps pulling 48A. I've tried plugging the car in first then changing and changing first...
Hey all,
So I've noticed the last two times we have gone away for a week that when I come back the front suspension has dropped significantly. The first time was about 3 months ago and it was low enough the tires rubbed on the wheel wells when turning slightly.
We just got back from a week...
I love that Rivian uses location in things like lock and unlock, update installs, and the garage openers, I would love it if the climate schedule worked similarly.
I left mine at the airport for vacation and my charge state was dropping the expected 1-1.5% per day initially then suddenly was...
So I took my '22 R1T LE out to try to DCFC for the first time locally. We're going on a trip this weekend and I just wanted to see how it worked and ensure that it did. Drove about 5 miles from my house to a Supercharger. The truck was preconditioning and clearly cooking extra electrons as I was...
So I have noticed for a few months now the front suspension often has to raise up usually at the first stop I make when driving after it's been sitting a while, like overnight or when leaving work. I didn't think much of it but we went on vacation for about 9 days around New Year's and the truck...
Hey all! With the recent snow, I bit the bullet and parked outside so my wife could have the garage. Managed to sneak the L1 portable charger under the garage door to try and keep it plugged in the cold. It got me thinking if I could just get a J1772 extension for my Tesla UWC so I could stay on...
Now that it's really cold out, I'm noticing the steering wheel is just barely warm. Like warm enough I can tell that it is a heated steering wheel but not quite warm enough to soothe my freezing hands after taking the kids sledding yesterday. My previous Ram was uncomfortably hot and had to be...
I've noticed over the last few days my 22 R1T that in the morning my truck is not preconditioning to schedule. I have it set to warm the cabin, seat, and wheel by the time I leave in the morning. When I head to the garage with my FOB and PaaK on me the truck doesn't seem to respond. It's set to...
Looking at ways to transport my 12' paddleboard. In my previous truck I used a tailgate pad designed for SUPs but with the bed being a foot shorter I'm curious if anyone uses the roof rails with the Yakima/Rivian SUP mounts? Just feels like they're awfully close together for a 12' board to be...
Switching from a Ram 1500 limited with powered running boards to the R1T a few weeks ago one of my immediate complaints was the entry and exit. Even as an "average" sized guy, I felt like I was jumping or hoisting myself into the truck and the wife and kids were having to push into the door...
Hey all, first real annoyance. I've noticed the driver side somewhere around the window makes a lot of wind noise. It sounds as if I have the window slightly cracked and you hear the wind blowing in. I don't feel any breeze and running my hand around the outside edges of the glass I don't feel...
Just got my 48A Tesla UWC installed and the car is showing +17mi in 30 mins charging at 10.8kW but only 5.4kWh added (5.2 kWh to battery). Truck shows average efficiency over my 260mi ownership as 1.9mi/kW.
Super happy with the charge rate but the math doesn't seem to be mathing well?
