  1. What is parasitic draw?

    According to Rivian, anything over 750mA Gen 1.1 (2 batteries) or 300mA for Gen 1.2 (1 battery). I stumbled on this in the Diagnostic Guide while looking for pyro fuse info.
  2. Another Windshield Q&A Thread...

    We've been beating this dead horse for quite a while; yes, Fuyao glass is trash; yes, it's annoying to get it repaired or replaced every few months (for some). But as I prepare for my 3rd (4th? I'm losing track) windshield, I thought it would be helpful to get experienced insight into a few...
  3. WAVE, OR DIE

    I swear, if I get snubbed by one more CLEARLY new Rivian owner just cruising mindlessly down the road and ignoring my finger point/turn signal wink... I'm going to revolt!
  4. Gen1 blowing air 🌬️

    Ever since 2025.06 update, my 2022 Gen1 Quad R1T has started cranking the vents to the highest setting after I exit the vehicle. I'll get out at home, grab the mail, come back and it's blasting. I even noticed it at work once, so it isn't a "Home" setting. Lock or unlock doesn't change the...

  6. Charging Rivian with Home Generator

    We've had some record winds whip through Western Washington last night, enough to down a healthy evergreen that luckily threaded between my neighbor's house and propane tank, and we've been without power for a while with restoration not likely for a day or two. I got a 13kW Generac wired in for...
  7. Brake Pad Replacement Cost ?

    Parts: twice what I expected, you can find plenty of "performance" quality pads at half the price Labor: For a Rivian, I can see just shy of 2 hours. It would take me at least that long DIY. Their labor rates are on par so I'll allow it Taxes: I hate Seattle... Thoughts?

  11. Washington Sold: Five 20" Staple Wheels w/ AS Tires

    The time has come! I haven't touched my OEM wheels in so long, it's time to find a good home willing to use them. I have five OEM 20 inch "staple" wheels with Pirelli All Season +3 275/60R20 tires mounted. 9/32" left on the 4 main, unsure of the spare but it's definitely at least the same if...
  12. Service Center Lesson: Remove ALL Accessories

    I dropped my truck for service in Seattle Tuesday, clearing out items from the cabin, bed, and took off the crossbars. I looked at the frunk tank and my gear tunnel slides thinking, "There's no way they'll need under those for suspension and tailgate issues." Well jokes on me, the suspension...
  13. Seattle Service Center - Rideshare to Enterprise?

    I got the jounce line replacement added to my service appointment in Seattle next week! Has anyone had a prolonged appointment and used the rental car option? I asked on the phone about estimated length, to which I learned I had "a rideshare to the rental agency, and rental booked." Are they...

  16. Seattle Area PDR

    Does anyone know a good Paintless Dent Removal in the Seattle area, preferably Kitsap? Carstar is the only one I see by me, but Metal Magic in Tacoma has good reviews. I dented the tailgate pretty good after slamming one too many times trying to get the broken latch to close, then dropped a...
  17. RTT Aero Test

    Someone smarter than me modified their R1T to plug the roof aero holes while towing, leading a few of us to ask if it's more aerodynamic with or without plugs when running with an RTT. We're leaving for a trip using the RTT tomorrow, so it's time to run another test! Like my other testing loop...
  18. First World Problems: multiple Rivians -- how to deal with app notifications

    If you have multiple Rivians in your app with you as primary owner, how do you turn off notifications for one of them but not the others? E.g. I only want to know when my Rivian is left unlocked, not the other(s).
  19. Quad Motor Gary Emblem

    OG Quads unite! We don't need no stinkin' profile-view Gary. My latest arts and crafts project: magnetic Gary emblem. Sadly, it won't stick to the tailgate. Is the tailgate a different material? Or just too thin?
