Yeah would be nice to have torque specs, likely even save rivian some time.This. ^
OTA? Yeah nah. And it’s not suspension. Only accel and slowing (not bumps or braking) do it. At least with the issue I have.
Mine has gotten obnoxious.
Anxiously waiting for my service appt.
I keep going under with intent to do something but without so much as proper torque specs it’s pretty much futile (for me at least).
I was at the SC last week and got the same response.Mobile service came to fix a panel alignment today.
While he was here, I took the technician for a drive around the block to show him the "bird chirping" squeak noise that sounded like it was coming from the suspension when driving over bumps at low speeds.
He told me:
Found it interesting, and encouraging that they have a software solution at least identified. No indication of when that may come.
- This is due to the suspension's dampers (paraphrasing)
- It's totally normal and he hasn't come across a Rivian yet that doesn't make the noise
- They are planning to fix it with an OTA in the future
Haha. Sounds like this guy should be in the running to be a guide supervisor then.Normally I wouldn't feel compelled to reply to Internet forum snarkiness. But the guy was super nice and seemed like he genuinely understood the situation and was not trying to BS me. In case anyone is questioning his intentions or that he was trying to get me out the door with a quick excuse. I didn't get that vibe at all.

Why is it always right front? Something is root cause on these right fronts....hope we someday find out...
To me that sounds suspension related as it amplifies during compression load and release. If it were drive line related, I would think you'd hear it under any load, at any speed.Just started hearing this today at a fast food drive through. Sounds horrible. Ticket filed.
is this the suspension or drive?
