  1. Clicking sound when 2023 R1S wakes up

    No insights to offer. Never happened with my 23 R1S. Please keep us posted on what they tell you. Good luck!
  2. Clunk / multiple rebound from rear suspension, service center says it feels "normal"

    Hi, What height mode are you in when this happens? I dont like any setting other than full/standard height and soft mode. Any lower/stiffer settings feel like there is no suspension or shocks on the vehicle, and shakes you, bouncing your head off the headrest like you're in a go cart. (R1S) I...
  3. Is it possible to swap a standard battery with a large pack?

    Definitely use the shipping mode. It drops my vampire drain to less than 1% daily for extended parking periods. I agree, this shouldn't be such a nuisance. It sure seems like poor engineering. But, the driving is fun!
  4. Is this piece plastic or metal?

    If it dented, it is definitely metal. It also looks pretty integral. I would consult a dent removal company first. They have vacuum pumps for removing such dents. Good luck.
  5. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    I was also having the clunk when first accelerating after coming to a firm stop. After the most recent update didn't fix the issue, I started adjusting settings. I have found that lowering the regenerative braking setting to the lowest level has solved the issue for about 600 miles of city...
  6. Transition between Regen and Power no longer smooth/quiet

    Keep us posted. I get a clunk when leaving after a stop sign/light.
  7. Key No Longer Detected + Bluetooth Key Access Unavailable + Key Card Not Recognized = Brick?

    I had the same issue DURING a service for the 12v battery recall. They had to replace the sensor in the door. They are for sale on the web, so it must be a common issue. If you are still in warranty, I'm pretty sure it should be covered if you call in about it. Good luck!

  9. 2025 R1S Battery Drain

    Yes, that range of cold temps steal about 30% of the average range. This shocked me during a recent trip we have made several times before during "normal" 70-90 degree days, running the A/C. It seems odd/annoying that they can't program the dash range estimator to be more accurate based upon...
  10. Waiting a year and a half now - no "resume" for cruise. Seriously?

    I agree. "Resume" is a natural and helpful function for cruise control. On a road trip, it doesn't make sense to have to reset the speed each time you have to brake. PLEASE, RIVIAN!!
  11. Touch up paint for rear chrome plastic trim on bumper.

    Call or email Touchupdirect.com. They were very helpful at matching a custom color on my RV. Good luck!
  12. Anyone have experience with Kuat Beta bike rack?

    Be sure the Kuat platforms are long enough for your bike's wheel span. They were too short for my 20" fat tire ebikes. I ended up having to source extensions for other brands, and Jerry rig them onto the Kuat rack, rather than attempt a return. Now, a year later, I have discovered that the...
  13. My R1S headlights kinda suck on dark roads

    I had a low headlight issue, and discovered that the problem was largely due to fact that my ride height hadnot adjusted that night because I was towing a small trailer. I raised the vehicle height and that helped the problem. I would like them just a smidge higher though. For future reference...
  14. An idea for “saying hi” to other Rivians on the road

    That would be if turned 90 degrees, with the thumb upward. Do you have another idea?
  15. An idea for “saying hi” to other Rivians on the road

    Hi Everyone I would like a "handshake" that can be used in many scenarios, such as when a fellow Rivian owner drives past while you're walking, or is next to you in another lane. How about using the "shaka" wave? From what I have researched, it's meanings are all positive and encouraging for...
  16. Picked up my new R1S

    Congrats. Brave first long run. Enjoy!
  17. Bring back Conserve Mode Towing

    I agree. There should be a two-wheel conserve mode for towing loads under a safely determined weight. Also, why is conserve only front wheel drive? They should be able to develop and include technology for two-wheel rear drive, and let you select which one you wish to use.
  18. Setting up gearguard drivecam with new usb drive

    I wasted a couple hundred dollars trying to find a workable usb drive. I finally consulted my geek brother for guidance. He informed me that only flash drives with a certain processing speed would be compatible. He also explained that some solid state drives would work, but be destroyed by the...
