I would do a swap, we have two old hybrids and batteries are still pretty good but that’s for gas mileage. For range or longevity, I would swap a battery in 7 to 10 years if it’s reasonable in cost. I mean Rivian supposedly cares about the earth so why would they want Rivians in good condition...
It’s difficult because these end up being new but when I had my Perelli’s, they were practically bald the last time I remember noticing their noise I honestly hear the wind and the whine of the electric motors more than I do hear the road with these Michelin’s.
if I were choosing between the...
After driving several thousand miles on the Michelin, I could say the Perelli grip 15% or 10% better in aggressive turns. There is no significant noise that bothers me although I suspect the Perelli were quieter due to the pattern. All in all in I’m happy with my purchase. I may switch back to...
The adhesive they use has an expiration date so it’s not good forever and likely some production either had bad bonding foam or not enough applied. I’m waiting for more to be available so they can do the repair.
So I have the same issue and happens often, I sometimes stream from my phone and sometimes use Apple Music through the R1T with my Rivian extra features subscription. Once in a while it loses frequencies or channels like voices are faint or guitar is clear but voice is faint or sounds from other...
So it looks like I’m on a small waitlist for this service to be performed. Something about a shortage of the material? Anyone have the service done and notice an improvement?
I’ve had this issue since delivery and they have attempted twice to fix this. Now I am told there is some hood compound that needs to be applied but I don’t know what that is. Regardless they say they can’t source it. Has anyone had a repair with this hood compound and can you show what it is...
Mine only occurred on self driving, I would see a rapid shimmy in the wheel like eyeballs entering rem sleep. If I held it, I could feel it. It would not do it at the same speeds without self driving engaged. It did so with the pirellis and the Michelin so I presume it’s something other than...
Sorry to clarify above pic, just got the Michellin ties Installed same stock size as Pirellis and thinking the tread wear should be at least double what I got out of the pirellis
Just got my first set. I have these on an old hybrid escape and the tread life is spectacular. I’ll see how these wear but the pirellis were showing tread warning at around 20k and bald wearing the indicator at 22k so I had these Michelin tires on order for a while and they arrived yesterday...
