  1. Clicking while at extremes of turning?

    It's been in for work 3 times in 6 months of ownership including a comp inspection the first time I took it in. It was just in three weeks ago for a handful of issues. I didn't know if it's had the time washer fix. Just not sure if this is something they can wait til we go on vacation next month.
  2. Probably overreacting but... Losing capacity fast?

    Yep, I've watched those. But when you're driving 250mi round trip into the boonies sometimes you gotta push that limit
  3. Probably overreacting but... Losing capacity fast?

    Well that makes me feel better. I wasn't sure how much to read into those values. Made me worried I was gonna trash my battery in a few trips. I know the Large pack NCA chemistry doesn't need large charges to calibrate like LFP but wonder if the earlier was more incorrect since I've never gone...
  4. Probably overreacting but... Losing capacity fast?

    So I bought my Rivian with about 40k on it. First checked Rivian roamer after the winter while reasonably warm and was sitting around 128.4kWh capacity, pretty good only losing about 3kWh (2%) over 4 years and 40k miles. It was around 128kWh last week, took my first big charge round trip of...
  5. Unplugging for Thunderstorms & Lightning?

    Pretty sure your Rivian will go 10x faster with sky electrons in it
  6. Very specific range question - Gen2 R1T Winter Highway (70-75 mph)

    I averaged 1.7-1.9 mi/kWh in my 22 Quad with 20" all terrains last winter with a mostly freeway commute about 25 miles. So you should do slightly better in a dual. I would expect you'll make one charge stop for 15-30 minutes halfway on that trip regardless of what time of year it is depending on...
  7. Clicking while at extremes of turning?

    Noticed this clicking when backing out of my garage the last week or so. Doesn't seem to matter which way I turn not if I'm backing or forward. Wheel at the extremes of turns and slow speeds clocks like this. Is this a normal Rivian things or one of the many to be expected repairs like a half...
  8. R1S 22" Tire Replacement Time - Decision Paralysis - Advice/Experience

    Also, the 115H Michelins are 2679lbs/tire rated so 10,716 for the vehicle. Rivian's GVWR is around 8500 (combined vehicle, occupants, cargo/payload, etc max limit). So you're still 2000lbs total or 500lbs/tire under the tires capacity.
  9. R1S 22" Tire Replacement Time - Decision Paralysis - Advice/Experience

  10. What’s Coming in Rivian’s 2026.15.30 Hotfix

    You mean you DONT like it when you're trying to have RA navigate you somewhere and your kids yell "tell a poop joke!" Until you scream at them to shut up? 🤣🤣🤣
  11. What’s Coming in Rivian’s 2026.15.30 Hotfix

    Rivian Assistant as is is still waaay better than any in car voice commands I've had in the last 10 years. Miles ahead of the garbage in our Subaru, Ram, and Hyundai. Anyone know if they are updating to allow RA to access the family calendar that's part of your Google calendar?
  12. Forest Edge Interior Package Announced for Limited Run

    Love my Forest Edge + Launch Green combo! Waited months for a used one with that combo to pop up. Sad for everyone else that won't be an option this time but glad my combo will become even more rare 😜 I've never cared for blacked out interiors, personally, just not enough contrast. We had the...
  13. Front suspension dropping slowly while parked, normal?

    Nice, never seen a mention of leak rate on mine. Curious what that is? Also sounds like yours was a single corner too?
