  1. Ventilated seats on = repeated creaking followed by a burble

    Annoyingly just got the car back for two quick service visits for minor issues and now I'm experiencing something I don't think I've seen mentioned on the forums. When the ventilated seats are enabled on the driver seat, I'll hear a repetitive creaking sound followed by a burble. I didn't think...
  2. 22" Inch Michelin - Defender LTX M/S2 115 vs 119 @ Costco

    Got 21,400 miles out of the OEM Pirellis. Never used conserve mode and had two rotations done during the life of the tires, I do put the suspension in auto setting often but will likely refrain going forward. From the photos, every tire had the red range peeking through, some more severe than...
  3. 22" Inch Costco: "Michelin Defenders all marked discontinued", onto Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra?

    Was just at Costco in Tustin, CA (my local Costco wasn't authorized to service Rivians yet according to their manager; refused to use my pucks due to liability issues). Luis, one of the Tustin employees was super helpful. Tried looking up every combination of the Defender 22" tires (I think we...
  4. Unofficial R1S Lego build

    Was scrolling through IG and came across an unofficial Lego build:
  5. Chrome trim difference on gen2

    Thought I knew all the differences between gen1 and gen2 but my PPF guy called one out today that was new to me. The chrome trim on the S is no longer segmented. That was a pain to deal with when putting on the blackout vinyl. It still lifts where they meet. In gen2 the indentation is no...
  6. Amazing PDR work on my R1S in Orange County, CA

    Was an idiot and backed up into a concrete lamppost base while parking. Was distracted with the kids, but zero excuse for poor parking. Anyway, I saw the following thread and figured it was worth giving PDR a shot even though my dent looked worse than @DTown3011 's. PPF fortunately did its job...
  7. Latest experiences at Costa Mesa SC?

    After 65 days (honestly not that long, we've enjoyed every bit of the 1900 miles we've put on it) since pickup, I'm finally sending in my S back to the SC for a number of minor issues present at pickup or that shortly manifested afterward...
  8. Passenger window shades

    Other cars have a pull-up shade I find very useful when the kids are sleeping. I already tinted my windows but could probably use something to make it even darker for future trips / car camping. Reached out to SnapShades a month ago and looks like they still don't have one for the R1S. If folks...
  9. Tips on resetting / pulling out passenger front window seal?

    Before I add this to my laundry list of minor issues, is there a tip to fix the seal? On the passenger side, it looks like it got pinched. I've tried putting a piece of plastic to hold it out and get the window to slide under it, but I guess it's been pinched for so long it's somewhat now set in...
  10. Like how the Rebelle Rally topo lines contour around the headlights

    Swung through one of the satellite office parking lots on the way to daycare pickup, spotted one of the non-modded Maasai R1Ts and one of the Rebelle Rally R1Ts. Didn’t notice this before, but I love how they contoured the topo lines around the headlights in the front.
  11. Front + rear dashcam installed via mirror tap (DIY tutorial)

    Due to insurance scammers, terrible drivers (captured via my FIL's car the week after they took delivery), and criminals driving recklessly leaving a crime scene (was hit while waiting at a light in San Francisco), I've always been a stickler about having dashcams installed when driving...
  12. Limestone R1S w/ STEK DYNOmatte PPF wrap

    Newbie to PPF but I must've watched most of the available Youtube videos on the topic and gotten quotes from most of the OC and surrounding area installers. Ultimately went with STEK and a good friend's referral for installation, a small outfit named Advanced Protective Films in Fountain Valley...
  13. Gear Guard Motion Cam suggestion (save to external storage device)

    Was at Seaworld over the weekend parked from 9:50am–8:20pm. Parked away from folks in an empty lot which I assumed would eventually fill up over the course of the day. When I went to view the Motion Cam recordings that night, I was surprised to see that the videos earlier in the day were...
  14. Took delivery at Costa Mesa SC [R1S 149##]

    Configuration: 08/2021 R1S Adventure Limestone Ocean Coast 22" Sport Bright Last Estimate: October–December 2023 Test Drive: 6/15/2023, was immediately offered one after I moved back to CA from WA, rebooked a few times Shop Access: 6/22/2023, just missed quarter end so options were very limited...
  15. GM Defense’s Silverado-based ISV

    Not that Rivian needs another thing to execute on, but just came across the US Army’s Climate Strategy and GM Defense’s Silverado EV-based Infantry Squad Vehicle. Took a look at it and just wondered if the R1T would’ve provided a more capable base. I assume there’s plenty of alignment between...
  16. California Sold: Rivian Wall Charger NIB $550 (Orange County pickup, no shipping)

    Didn't realize Rivian shipped it until it just showed up at my door. My vehicle is still a few weeks out. Anyway, I'm going to go the Nema 14-50 route so won't be installing this hardwired charger. The box is unopened. Giving someone a shot at it before I opt to return it to Rivian.
