  1. Rear dampener needs replaced, just past warranty

    I’ve been wondering about this for other things. Any suggestions on how to go about trying to do this in the Southern California/Central Coast area?
  2. New Rivian Key Fob 2.0 w/ Ultra-Wideband (UWB) passed by FCC

    I like the fob. I don’t have it for my 2025 R1S 2nd but my rental from Enterprise has it and I really like it. It’s also WAY more reliable than the phone app when walking up the car. So for me personally, it won’t be a waste of money when I can actually get one!
  3. Harsh ride issue fix: exercise (calibrate) suspension -- raise to Off-Road Mode + lower to Performance Mode

    This has also been my experience. I find that "exercising" it as the original poster suggested can make a difference, but it doesn't necessarily last. In my case, the car went in for service because in addition to the harsh ride, I was getting a bunch of warnings about the suspension needing...
  4. Harsh ride issue fix: exercise (calibrate) suspension -- raise to Off-Road Mode + lower to Performance Mode

    Thanks very much for posting this. I've experienced what I think is abnormally harsh suspension in the soft mode and have been dreading getting a service appointment (100 miles away) to have it looked at. I will try this first. Mine is a Gen2 with 800 miles, picked up on August 29. Out of...
  5. Rivian Premium Audio Options

    Love my R1S but do wish I could’ve gotten the premium audio. My 2014 Highlander XLE (which I gave up for the R1S) sounded much, MUCH better. BUT I’m still in love with the R1S, of course! I had the same question as ukyank. I asked the guide when I picked it up and he kinda looked at me and said...
  6. What do you think it is? Rivian news tomorrow!

    Safe bet…because I just pulled the trigger and take delivery today!
  7. Rivian Premium Audio Options

    I will…on September 5 when I drive my new R1S home from where I’m picking it up, 2.5 hours away!
  8. Rooftop Tent Woes (Yakima Skyrise Rivian branded tent)

    Relatedly, how long does it take the pitch the R1S Three-Person Tent (first time, and after some practice)?
  9. Rivian Premium Audio Options

    Yes, I was talking about #3. I went ahead and pulled the trigger anyway, though. There just weren't any in the R1S store with other features I wanted that had option #4. But no matter. I'm just thrilled I'll be a Rivian Owner and not just a voucher holder on September 5
  10. Rivian Premium Audio Options

    I was an early reservation holder and didn't want to risk losing my voucher, so I pulled the trigger on a new R1S from the shop. Super excited, and expecting to take delivery on September 5. Unfortunately, the one item I really wanted -- Premium Audio -- was not available. My question is whether...
  11. STEALTH PPF MIDNIGHT BLACK R1T w/ OCEAN COAST interior and 22″ Sport Dark wheels

    Hi. I know this post is 2+ years old, but if you are still here, what color combination did you go with? I need to make a decision today or tomorrow, and am torn between the Midnight/OC, Midnight/Black, and LA Silver/OC.
  12. R1s Ride Comfort between AT and 22s

    I know there are a ton of threads about tires and that I'm completely ignorant overall, but just so I understand, did you get the 20" AT rims on your R1S and then switch the OEM tire for the 275/60/20R Pirellis? Did you ever take your vehicle off-roading and if so, how did the performance...
  13. Review of R1S Gen 2 Dual Max Performance with Darkout Package

    Just asked. He said it was an availability issue. But as someone else pointed out, there are R1Ss for sale in the R1S Shop with the Darkout option. There just aren’t that many
  14. Review of R1S Gen 2 Dual Max Performance with Darkout Package

    I've always liked the look of "deleting" the chrome on a car, but wonder what folks think about the Rivian darkout relative to the metal skid plates. Does it make things look cheaper? My old (long ago sold) Tesla Model 3 didn't have any chrome to speak off, so when I blacked-out the molding...
  15. Tesla FSD coming to Rivian?

    My guess (which is a pure guess) is Volvo or Lexus (Toyota), because both seem to be testing Luminar technology (https://www.luminartech.com/), especially Volvo (but there seem to be more Lexus SUVs on the Luminar website these days). Luminar is striving for level 5 autonomous driving someday...
  16. Volvo Joins NACS

    I was an early-ish Tesla Model 3 lessor and one of the nice things (in my limited experience) about the Tesla SCs was that even if you had to wait, everyone with a Tesla was still giddy about it, and it felt like an exclusive EV "community" where everyone politely waited their turn. With a...
  17. ? Rivian Adopts Tesla NACS Standard! (Adapters in 2024, Standard Charging Port in 2025)

    From the email Rivian sent a few minutes ago: We’re collaborating with Tesla to open charging for Rivian vehicles at more than 12,000 Tesla Superchargers across The United States and Canada. Starting as early as Spring 2024, we’ll offer an NACS adapter that allows you to charge at Tesla...
