Was expecting Google cast feature in this release.
Yep, a little disappointed. Was hoping to see that before trial end to see if was going to renew. Rivian service wasn't able to provide any new details as to the feature itself. I think though it was confirmed that the trial would be available when said feature is actually launched as well.

Added a new phone and media panel to the carousel.
I also hope the carousel can be customized - really don't need the tire pressure there 90% of the time so a fairly useless slot to skip through

It’s funny to count the number of bugs fixed in a release that are actually regressions broken in a prior release. I count about a half dozen in this one. So, we have an expectation of at least a few new things breaking in this release. Two steps forward, one step back.

It's nice to see there's some mention of tracks being interrupted. Happens in Tidal all the time.

But I notice there's not even a mention of the perpetually re-enabling auto-ride height bug, not that there was any mention of it being implemented as a 'feature' either. Since it's clear that they don't actually document everything they change it makes me wonder what else gets hidden in these updates.

still I yearn for a way to use my bike rack brake lights without ruining the vehicle's safety features
YES! I totally agree! We need an option for hitch-mount bike racks with tail lights that don't deactivate so many features of the vehicle.

It's not a bug. The vehicle must default to the EPA-tested settings to comply with regulation. This is why gas cars re-enable auto-start/stop every time you get in the car, even when you've previously disabled it.

Unless you're talking about some other software behavior?

I always have mine on auto so I can’t speak to it being a bug, but I’m not aware of an EPA regulation requiring it to come on all the time. My last vehicle a 22’ Tundra had the auto start/stop and I turned it off and it stayed off, never turned itself back on in 2 years I owned it. ?‍♂

The below is guidance specific to EVs, but the same concept applies to gas vehicles. It's possible the Tundra didn't do EPA testing with the auto-start/stop engaged or averaged both modes. Or someone installed an override before you bought it. Or did you have a hybrid?

A vehicle with a single default drive mode may be tested for MPGe and range in that mode. If a vehicle has drive mode effecting features that allow the default drive mode to be changed from drive to drive, then it is not considered to have a single default drive mode. If a single default drive mode does not exist, the manufacturer must test for range and MPGe in one of two methods: 1. Determine the best-case and worst-case latching modes for range and MPGe. Test in both modes and average the results. 2. Determine the worst-case latching mode for range and MPGe and test in that mode only.

I sincerely wish people would stop trying to correct me on this. Yes, there is actually a bug in that update where the auto ride height constantly turns itself back on, even if you turned it off the instant your ass landed in the seat. There have been multiple threads from various people puzzling as to why it keeps coming back on despite the edits to the owners manual stating it's only supposed to do so every 4 hours. Rivian has acknowledged this is a defect but has no fix for it.

Also I'm not sold on the EPA reasoning since it went apparently unnoticed for 15 months until the 2025s started being delivered. I have trawled the EPA testing documents myself. The question that speculation can't answer is if that setting actually was enabled during the 2024 testing and I'm not yet convinced it was. I'm personally suspicious it was a change made for Gen 2 to make the range numbers look better on the smaller batteries that they applied across the board.

I cannot figure out what this means or what motor configurations this applies to.

Rivian is starting to have so many current and legacy configurations that they need to segment the updates notes better.

I agree, have no idea what that's supposed to mean, but I'd love to know.

As for which config - every config except Gen 1 Quad has an auto disconnect on the rear. So I'm guessing it's fairly universal

That should be the vehicles with the rear enduro motor. They automatically engage and disengage based on load.

The quads with the Bosch engines only disengage rear motors when drive mode is switched to conserve. We do not know how the new Enduro motor quads will behave yet.

Yeah I'm curious as well. The only thing I've noticed, is on acceleration it shows all 4 wheels outputting power (the yellow fill in the wheels), yet when lifting off acceleration to enable regen it only shows the front wheels taking in regen to the front motor (no green fill to rear). When I was driving my loaner quad I noticed all wheels would populate green fill when in regen in all purpose. And only to front wheels when in conserve.
So I'm wondering if the bug is not showing regen to rear motor on my Gen2 R1S...

Still wish that Rivian would update the power meter on driver IP to show actual power available vs max power...Like they do when QM is in conserve for example.

So when SOC is low...and power available is something less than 100%, show that in that sliding display thing. Or if things are hot...cold...etc...

I want to know....how much under max the truck has....am I at...at any given time.

I think it actually is only doing regen on the front wheels. I've noticed on mine that if I accelerate heavily enough to engage the rear clutch and then immediately regen it will use both motors for Regen. But if I'm gently cruising it'll only use the front.
