Going into the shop in a few days, advice?

[Rickmc]

I'm going into the shop in 3 days and wanted to know what I can ask them to take a look at while they have it in service.

I know a lot of issues have been discussed here and the service centers have fixed so I want to compile a list of items for them to double check

Here is one I remember recently that I will ask them to double check and or replace if possible with the new drain parts
* A/C condensation drain getting plugged and leaking into cabin

Any additional items you can suggest to have them take a look would be great. I have the tock noise from the front half shafts, have had the ting (original tings) washers installed but that didn't fix it however I hardly notice it if at all any more so either I am so used to it or it's subsided over time.

I have had my R1T since 9/2022 (27,500 miles) and love it, no show stopping issues ever. Had the system warn me of 12v batteries needing replaced and the SC got me in and out in a few hours which saved a trip I had that weekend.

Little tiny things I'm having fixed/looked at
* Flashlight stopped charging in door
* Bluetooth speaker does not charge in the console or communicate that it is in the console
* Tailgate plastic cap coming off
* rubber door seals under driver/passenger door loose/peeling away
* ever present wind noise over 55mph from driver's window
* Original powered tonneau still working! However, it is now stopping during open/closing and requiring calibration regularly. Only a matter of time...

Take a complete set of photos of the exterior and interior for your records.

I didn't read your post, just title.

Bring donuts, maybe bagels.

Yes... Take some pics like you would if you were taking a car to any dealer. We had ours in for a under steering column sensor fan replacement. Simple fix and they did a good job. About a week and a half later when cleaning, I noticed three small scratches on drivers side speaker grill (my wife does the mojority of the R1S driving). I figured the service tech layed down with his back under the dash and maybe a set of keys or tool hanging out of his pocket scratched the grill. I pretty much know they weren't there a week earlier, because I cleaned that area during my weekly wash at home and they were definately tool marks. Since so much time had passed before I saw them, I just ordered a good used one off Ebay, because as minor as they were, I couldn't unsee them. With that said... take a few pictures, it doesn't hurt.
