Thats nonsense. its a 116 load rating, exactly what comes oem with the rivian. I have these tires on my wife's R1s (granted we have the 65 aspect ratio), and they are quiet and smooth as can be. If you have a steering wheel vibration you either have a suspension issue up front, or the tires...
The red cord does not carry 400v. It carries 12v to the giant relay contactor that connects the battery to the rest of the HV system. So pulling that loop disconnects the battery from the HV system by way of a relay.
That can’t be the high voltage pyrofuse. Maybe that’s for the 12v side. The HV pyrofuse will typically be in or around the main battery pack as it obviously needs to be connected to the HV power cables.
Maybe watch some of the YouTube Rivian tear down videos and see if it’s in those.
Wife lost her wedding ring under there. It’s easy. 4 15mm bolts which are torqued pretty high and you can tilt the seat back and pop up the plastic cover.
i bet the car works fine. Same thing happened to my wifes R1s last week. Got the warning, she drove it just fine. Service said measured voltage was fine, just set off the replacement warning. I pulled up the RIDE menu and it was 13.4 volts. They just replaced the battery this past monday.
Also for the magic dock you don’t need the app either. Hold the button on the charger for two seconds then push the whole thing in and it’ll come out with the ccs adapter in place.
what do you mean unlock the tesla charger? You can just remove it from the pedestal. Did it not automatically start charging when you plugged it into the rivian?
very pleased that this can be fixed OTA. I really was dreading having to wait for service or having to take the car in.
To me this is a no harm no foul kind of situation. I still commuted in my r1t, wasn’t stranded anywhere, and I’m not put at an inconvenience to get it fixed. (Assuming the fix...
Im just concerned that there will not be an OTA fix. That wording doesnt explicitly say its an OTA fix, which makes me wonder if it will require either a mobile or service visit.
Just put the suspension in highest mode, and no you dont have to remove any wheel liners. You can reach all the bushings.
Just make sure you only use silicone spray or white lithium spray (i prefer silicone). Any petroleum based lubricant will degrade the bushings.
I think a lot of the creeks and noises in the suspension are from the bushings. I went around with some silicone spray one weekend and lightly sprayed each joint. The difference was amazing. Didn't last forever though. Makes me tempted to take the suspension apart and use some real silicone grease.
