  1. Auto Socks in CA, how many?

    Thatā€™s the beauty of snow socks though, fit to top, drive a meter, fit to rest. Slow/high gear move off & keep to the tracks. ā€˜thank-you, another great answer.
  2. Auto Socks in CA, how many?

    It does & thank-you so much, answered my suspicions. Theyā€™re the pirelli 275/55 r22 m+s. But to me it seems as if in Cat3 snow, (& simply to tick boxes), having an AutoSock per tyre couldnā€™t really be argued with. . . . thanks all so much
  3. Auto Socks in CA, how many?

    Thanks so much for your reply. grew up as a farmer in N. Europe & learnt 1st hand the higher gear trick to getting traction from a standing start In all manner of vehicles. But my understanding of CA snow / cat 3 road traffic rules are that M+S are ok & will usually suffice, but are no...
  4. Auto Socks in CA, how many?

    Hi, used to have an Audi Quattro with all season Pilot Sports, & for safety/arguments sake bought 2 sets of dual Auto Socks, just in case we were in the mountains & needed snow chains. does the same apply to a Performance Dual, (I.e. an Auto Sock p/wheel) or are the M+S tyres good enough for a...
  5. Back to Black? Recommendations for treatment / restoring exterior black plastic?

    What are your recommends for the best treatment & restorative for the exterior black plastic, as sometime products like ā€™Back to Blackā€™ can cook the plastic & turn it grey, particularly in full sun, like SoCal. Seems as if Rivian are actively promoting Dr Beasley, can anyone recommend one of...
  6. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    But I think after all the strikes here in LA, that Drama, or at least the ability to engage with it in official, broadcaster backed content & apps is the very point. At home my Sony TVā€™s accept my telephone streaming & the HDMI Apple TVā€™s connected to them, as do the Sonos speakers throughout my...
  7. New Gen2 Key Fob now available in Rivian gear shop

    & sold out by lunchtime on the 1st day! Honestly they desperately need to work out their supply chain issues!!!
  8. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    Totally agree. Seems utterly asinine to create & now maintain such an issue. A simple Google search suggests that over 57% of us Americans own an iPhone, which given that Rivian has sold about 100K vehicles, equates to 57,000 of us owners unable to watch any of the 1000ā€™s of Movies & TV shows...
  9. User Interface Laggy?

    Gen2 running latest software update & yes, got slower over the last 2 updates. Despite the fact that I personally find it dangerously distracting to press the iPad (rather than have physical critical function buttons), this lag makes that even worse & extremely distracting & dangerous...
  10. Does Apple Music work for anyone with Connect+ right now?

    Posted about the same issue at the beginning of the week after having spoken to Rivian about it. had done both soft & hard reboots, but still spinning wheels. Hasnā€™t worked for me in 2 weeks now. Rivianā€™s response was that they ā€˜knew about itā€™ & that there wasnā€™t a fix until the next update.
  11. Connect +

    Yep, that was what I was told this evening, that it was a ā€˜knownā€™ issue & there wasnā€™t an immediate fix, that they couldnā€™t comment on any refund, irrespective of whether youā€™d paid for it, or were still in trial, that a fix would be included in the next update. but anyone whoā€™s got it to work...
  12. Connect +

    Noticed a week & half ago that the subscription id paid for Connect + & being able to listen to Apple Music had stopped working. Did both soft & hard reboots & was still spinning its wheels. Called Rivian & yes, itā€™s a ā€˜problemā€™ affecting anyone expecting to use their Connect + subscription with...
  13. Sliding on snow + ice: thank goodness for Soft Sand Mode

    Ha! Iā€™ve got a full set for the Audi we just retired in getting an R1S. Maybe only used them twice in 13yrs! But they made a massive difference.
  14. Turn signal - let’s improve it!!

    Couldnā€™t agree more, bloody thing is too clever binging & bonging when you donā€™t use the indicators to change lanes, but when you do use them, & that silly animation shows youā€™ve changed lanes, it carries on regardless! so frustrating & so simple to fix!!!
  15. Adapter Lock Issues, any solves?

    Thanks, am in the queue for one, but no idea when itā€™ll arrive.
  16. Adapter Lock Issues, any solves?

    As above, (& thank-you both), using an A2Z Typhoon adapter. Very solid & built like a brick šŸ’©house, & also quite heavy, but could not for the life of me disengage it. looks like thereā€™s a wiggle & jiggle technique to disengage it. . . thank-you both again.
  17. Adapter Lock Issues, any solves?

    Tried a Tesla charger this weekend with an adapter. Worked fine until the end of the charge but could not get the adapter released, despite the session having ended. Seems as if thereā€™s a current to magnetically attach & lock the adapter, but even after the session ended I could not for the...
  18. Question to Dual Motor Performance drivers

    Have to say Iā€™ve not noticed any difference, I.e. that at whatever speed & independent of mode setting the Performance addition just kicks you off at warp speed, the harder you push on the pedal. Itā€™s a scary feeling in a 3.2ton truck getting torque steer issues, irrespective of starting...
