    How can I remove PAAK and use the fob only? PAAK can F all the the way off

    I have an iPhone 15. Paak works fine 80% of the time. 15% there is a significant delay in locking or unlocking where I walk away and wait, wait, wait to make sure it locks.. 5% I ended up having to use another method. The annoyance out weighs the connivence by a long measure. Also, I do a...

    How can I remove PAAK and use the fob only? PAAK can F all the the way off

    I recognize Mr Stanfield as a fellow longtime Rivian Forum member who I typically see eye to eye with on all things Rivian. However, on this topic our experiences diverge. I find the door locks to be the worst aspect of the Rivian experience. The capacitive touch door lock was perfected maybe...

    Front Drive Unit Replacement-Who’s had it done?

    I disagree. Forums skew strongly to the negative. I think I’m more the norm.

    PSA on R1S gen2 failure when reboot won't work, door handles half open

    Seems like Rivian roadside support people have a 3 step flowchart to follow. 1. Try soft reset 2. Try hard reset 3 Send tow truck

    Unacceptable Heater Performance

    I timed it yesterday. Left a 45 degree garage, 28 degree outside temp. In 2 minutes I had fully hot air coming out of the vents. Gen 2 with heat pump. I never use auto and have had good performance

    Unacceptable Heater Performance

    I never use auto either. In manual mode the heating is fine. The vents never seem to really shut off when you turn them off, that is kinda annoying. But, I get plenty of heat pretty quickly after starting the drive. Location is Minnesota so temps are around 30 now.

    Interior Dome Light won’t turn on

    Guess it was my time - 12v is dead

    Progress, of sorts. It does seem like a good number of battery issues are really just a symptom of some other underlying mechanical issue.

    Guess it was my time - 12v is dead

    12v batteries can just die. They just do. Rivian has now made 100,000 vehicles. If there is 1 12v failure a week across the fleet then the failure rate is just 0.052% per year. Even one per day across the fleet is just 0.36% in a year. Perspective.

    12v issues (both needed replacement)

    I wonder if there is a correlation between vehicles with large vampire drain and probability of 12v failure? My R1T has always had vampire drain on the low end of reports, about 1/2% per 24 hours.

    12v issues (both needed replacement)

    What is the collective wisdom of the group here regarding preemptive 12v replacements? I’m at 20 months and 40,000 miles. I’m thinking about doing it before a big July road trip.

    By “staff” does the Count mean the Royal Offspring? The heirs to the R1S throne.

    R1S 1200ish Miles Battery Broken

    Or, get the new batteries and install them yourself. YouTube videos exist on how to do it.

    Whining noise from rear after right turns

    Long shot here, but I once had a small stone stuck under a brake pad that made a loud intermittent sound.
