My 23 R1S Quad is scheduled for service next week. On hot days the A/C does not comfortably cool the cabin. It just can't keep up, on auto or with recirculate on or off. It's much worse than my Chevy Volt and 20 year old Hyundai. Something is wrong or the A/C is crap. Most times though it's...
Lucky me, I have the last-place Geolandar AT4 LTs on my R1S. About 1000 miles in they have much less road noise and harshness than the OEM Pierelli's. Huge improvement. Cold weather has tanked my efficiency so the jury is still out there.
They say in the video how loud the Geo's are, something...
This location has been talked about for a while but it's finally open! I just made an alignment appointment for end of December but there were some mid-month dates available. Trenton staff is great but glad to have this 20 mins from home!
Location is off Route 30 in the Malvern/Frazer area not...
According to the Yoko website they are 53.4 pounds vs 57.3 for the Nokian Outpost nAT’s. I think Pirelli’s were 48 pounds. So weight wise I thought I was in the middle between OEM and Nokian’s which are well liked. Granted, more than just weight goes into efficiency.
Thus far they get an A for...
We just got back from a roadtrip on the OEM Pirelli's. Tread was getting low and they started making weird groaning noises on winding roads. After 32k miles it was a sign.
I wanted the Nokian Outpost nAT's but they were out of stock. These Yokohama Geolandar AT4's were available immediately and...
HVAC normally works very well, summer or winter, so this was an unpleasant surprise. The only fix was that the quieter AC lines were installed about a month ago, but I wouldn't think this would be affected.
I did have two other minor quirks on the drive. Lost GPS somehow and had to do a hard...
I just got back from a 1200 mile road trip which was mostly pleasant except for the climate control which was doing its own thing.
First-- should the 3rd row be shaded as blue (cold) even when the front and middle rows are on heat? Kids said it was blowing warm air and weren't complaining but...
I already had an appointment scheduled at the SC, mobile service was a few weeks out. They didn't want me in a degraded 12v state for that long. They also said it could be "other stuff" along with the 12v. I had some business not far from the SC so I didn't even question.
I had a recent 12v experience (R1s Gen1) and was able to get it going again so I could drive to the SC.
First, I didn't let either the HV or 12v get low. It was charging L2 all night and in the morning the door handles were slow opening. The 12v red light was on and the screens were also on but...
Where in NY do you live where the closest SC is 5 hours away? There are several unpublished locations that may be closer. You don't need to go to Brooklyn if that's what you're thinking.
We love our R1S Quad, easily the best and most fun vehicle we've owned. Longer drives seem to go by much...
I have an R1S with 20" AT tires and thus far the only off-roading has been the grassy parking lots at soccer games.
I have never off-roaded before but would like to do something fun as long as I can wash it off. Nothing unsafe and nothing technical requiring winching, rigging, etc. Just a...
Wondering if the e-mail was regionally sent or nationwide? I'm located in PA and didn't get an email. Hope early November is Thanksgiving. :-)
I get that nothing is free forever but I wish they'd hold off until Tesla's network is open. I was thinking that would come sooner than planned but...
