  1. Loud wind noise in cabin

    This was what I experienced too at highway speeds. Figured out where it was coming from. The service writer needed to know if it was happening at or near posted speeds or higher. Told me if it was at higher speed 75+ then it is to be expected. If not there was a problem. It turned out the...
  2. Rivian Subscription Services - A Look At What's Coming?

    My premium subscription from Tesla is $9.95/month, and I paid in advance and got a small discount. All I use it for is navigation with traffic. All I really need from Rivian for streaming cellular signals is to make sure my navigation system works and has traffic data. Oh yea, now I will need...
  3. R1T clicking sound when in reverse

    Does the car kneel when parked? If so and you’re backing out of your driveway the compressor is raising the car. Mine does it in both reverse and drive. It stops in about 500 feet.
  4. Small Regen loss? New UI appearance.

    Or the battery is full and limiting regen.
  5. Freezing rain and PPF

    By the time you read this you’ve most likely defrosted your R1. If air temperature is very near or above freezing then using a garden hose will loosen it up and it’ll slide right off. Municipal water coming from underground pipes is normally around 50 degrees. The delta between 32 degree ice...
  6. Rivian Tax Credit Email

    Actually, Rivian does have the ability to tell you if you signed the binding agreement or not. I wrote my guide and about 30 minutes later he informed I did not sign it last year.
  7. Conserve Mode Front Wheel Drive, Why?

    Thanks for the rational. I admit I’m not into the weeds about this stuff so be gentle with your comments. I thought having quad motors would give me AWD all the time. If I’m reading this thread correctly the rear motors disengage in AP mode when speed hits 20mph until additional traction is...
  8. Conserve Mode Front Wheel Drive, Why?

    I don’t understand why my quad motor R1S uses front wheel drive in conserve mode instead of rear wheel drive. As I’ve understood pushing the vehicle is easier on the drive train than pulling the vehicle, but that may only be applicable to ICE vehicles. Also oversteer is terrible in my R1S in...
  9. Did Rivian send everyone a sweatshirt

    Nothing for either in California.
  10. Any Way to Add in XM Radio?

    I too have the same problem, streaming sucks due to crappy cellular coverage from all provider’s therefore it will suck using Rivian’s app just like Tunin, Spotify, etc. I would recommend getting one of the newer XM Roady radios, and have it installed to where the FM output is physically...
  11. Has anyone insured successfully with AARP?

    When I got my R1 S, I contacted Rivian to see what their insurance quote through nationwide. It turned out that nationwide premium was higher than what AAA was going to charge me for the exact same coverage at 500,000 500,000. So I stuck with AAA and I’m paying $3100 a year for full coverage...
  12. Charging RIVIAN with Tesla DC Fast Chargers

    I’ve been using JB Mobile Detailing for both PPF and Ceramic Pro. As mentioned earlier they do two different things. I love both but the ceramic coating really does help keep the car cleaner and easy to wash. The ceramic coatings they use not only protect the paint, they also use it on the PPF...
  13. Explanation of changes - amending 2022 taxes

    Thanks, I appreciate that explanation. Now I know what I need to do.
  14. Explanation of changes - amending 2022 taxes

    I subscribe to Plug In America and after I posted my question I received their email and found this cool link about the tax credit broken down by delivery dates, it includes 2022. Here’s the link...
  15. Explanation of changes - amending 2022 taxes

    I have a basic question. If you signed the form in 2022 but didn’t take physical delivery until September 2023 are you eligible for the $7500 tax credit in 2022? No monies exchanged hands until the actual delivery date. Thanks
  16. Charge Port Noise

    I sent the video to Rivian through the app. Got a call about an hour later and was told it was item 6 on my SO.
  17. Charge Port Noise

    I'm not sure where my video went, so I'm loading it again.
  18. Charge Port Noise

    Thanks, I'll add it to my growing service order list coming up in 15 days, 66 days down.
  19. Charge Port Noise

    I’m checking to find out if the charge door on my R1S is sticking upon opening. I hear a pretty loud pop when the charge port door opens. There is also a mechanical sound unlocking the charge port door and the pop is almost on top of it. Turn your volume up. Is this normal or should I have...
