Afternoon Rivian netizens,
I frequently (daily) use the driver side gear tunnel. It has developed quite a hinge squeak. If it were as simple as pointing WD40 dry lube on the hinge, this wouldnt even make for a good thread. However, the hinge cover is designed in such a way that a) you cannot see the hinge point to throw any lubricant and b) removing the rear hinge cover fasteners would almost certainly result in two lost fasteners. Does anyone have a schematic of the gear tunnel hinge so I can at least try and point so lubricant in the general direction? Most appreciated.
