Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

[Riviot]

This happens Every. Single. Time. You would think people who have had their R1 for a year would be aware of this by now.

Releases are published every 4 weeks. Release .50 will come 4 weeks after release .46.

It has been only TWO weeks since 2023.46.0 was first pushed to customers. See the thread on 2023.46.0: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/software-update-2023-46-0-is-rolling-out.21965 which was opened on 7 December.

Very common software release versioning. The number is the week of the year. Week 50. Last one was week 46. Maybe it didn't come out for a few more days, but it was the code from release 46, so 4 weeks earlier.

I'm not referring to the motors. I'm referring to the Bosch Regenerative Braking System. [...]

Thank you for this Bosch reference!

I'm a retired Electrical Engineer and would love to have access to something like a wiki page with all known R1 technical detail.

Wiper auto sensitivity adjustment is a huge one for me in Vancouver. While the auto has been great, there are times where it needs to clear the windshield and doesn't engage. Typically it's in misty conditions.

I did notice today off-roading that they were engaging more frequently on the 0.46 build so they seem to be making constant subtle tweaks.

can’t wait for more control over auto. Our rain has so many different degrees of downpour, that the current itineraries has no idea what to do. That being said, I’ve never had a car where I’ve been happy with auto wipers in the Vancouver area.

Curious if anyone else has noticed the entertainment system volume seems to have been limited down. Even at full blast it’s nowhere near as loud as it was originally in my R1S. I could make the doors vibrate before. No longer.

I agree the sounds does not seem as loud as it was before on my R1S. The sound quality still seems good but the volume is lower.

Rivian may have adjusted either the crossover or have the limiters kick in sooner to prevent rattling. People may have been complaining about rattles in the past. Just speculating.

Some people have reported in others threads that a reboot corrected this problem.

Interesting. I had the same sense, several updates back, and the volume is still a bit lower than I remember from days of yore. I've avoided doing a reset of the car because I don't want to lose my settings and I don't get raucous that often, but still, maybe I should consider doing that next time I want to throb some David Guetta beats from the driver-side DJ booth.

AND the ability to draw power from the wall instead of from the battery. Christmas came early!

Is that actually what the release notes say about preconditioning? I think it just states that it can draw power outside of TOU schedule to periodically top off the battery. Maybe I’m reading it wrong.

This did the trick. Thanks for sharing.

Reset your car.

My steering wheel will not calibrate nor will my phone save changes over IP/Wifi - what reset are you recommending and what is the actual reset procedure?

Reset your car.
