  1. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    No software update for me. I'm assuming the update they're talking about with a rough engagement is with regard to the clutch disconnect. Esentially they are turning what we call all purpose mode into conserve, and then we will get a new all purpose mode like what tri and quad has where it's AWD...
  2. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    @krb1183 honestly I didn't REALLY have an issue until I romped on it too many times with bad tires. The other stuff was so subtle I didn't realize it was actually an issue I've had my handles replaced as well.. but they started squeaking again a week later :headbang: - fortunately it's not AS...
  3. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    its a conundrum, that's for sure. The nice thing is it's not really a safety issue (aside from the wheel speed sensor potentially?) More of just an NVH comfort thing, I've learned. Hopefully the fixes stick, though. Definitely some hard engineering work from the folks at Rivian to get something...
  4. No more solo Diamond Lane in CA [Admin Warning: NO POLITICS]

    The program in Utah is ending Sep 30th as well :( NGL - the Utah program is REALLY, REALLY good, but agruable unfair to new EV drivers. It was just a $10 one time fee to register for life (as long as you own the vehicle) for unlimited HOV access. You got an electronic tag for your windshield...
  5. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    I recently got my Gen 2 R1S back from service for this issue - and honestly, it has me questioning what I thought I knew about Rivian drive train feel. After getting the fix, it feels smoother than it did on delivery day, fresh from the factory. Like it was never right to begin with. So I did a...
  6. Driver Display shows only Lead Car (Gen 2)

    Unfortunately the notes just say "diagnostic" on it. Nothing specific. They just told me about the firmware mismatch when I picked it up and was chatting with the tech
  7. Driver Display shows only Lead Car (Gen 2)

    For me the cause was a firmware mismatch, and unfortunately OTA software updates didn't fix it. It had to be fixed by a tech, doing a manual firmware install from the Rivian service software
  8. Rivian's Secret Weapon: Zonal Architecture (The Tech VW Is Paying Billions For)

    There’s been a lot of chatter (and conflicting information) about the Rivian–Volkswagen joint venture. What exactly is VW buying, and what aren’t they getting? Let’s break it down. I go into more detail on the video - so if you'd like to watch that instead: First - A Bit of Background The...
  9. Drive Mode - Setting Default

    I wasn't aware they had changed that for tri motor - that's great, actually! I sure wish they could legally do the same for dual motor
  10. Drive Mode - Setting Default

    For tri motor it should stay in all purpose or conserve. Any others it will reset back to all purpose after 4 hours of being parked due to EPA rules Yes! There's nothing special you have to do here. Whatever you change within a drive mode, it'll remember the next time you use that drive mode...
  11. Comma AI might have been causing issues on OOS truck?

    This is true - but from (bad) personal experience I know most people on the internet don't read into things that way. Most people will take away "comma is the problem". I'm sure comma.ai will survive, I just feel bad for all of the negative PR that this inconclusive result is causing
  12. Comma AI might have been causing issues on OOS truck?

    I do see your point but sadly I feel the reality is that most people on the internet don't dig to any amount. The vast majority of people (as much as they argue the contrary) just read the headline and move on. Words like "appears" and "allegedly" are far too often used in headlines as...
  13. Comma AI might have been causing issues on OOS truck?

    I feel that Kyle's video did comma.ai a huge disservice here. The video title "It Appears Comma AI Is The Cause Of My Rivian Motor Faults" implies a conclusive result that comma is causing problems. However the reality is that it's all just speculation at this point. They don't REALLY know if...
  14. Comma AI might have been causing issues on OOS truck?

    I'm afraid Kyle's video did comma.ai a disservice here. The video title misrepresents his findings. They THINK it MAY have something to do with it, it's inconclusive, and requires further testing. Maybe comma, maybe the harness, who knows. Further testing on his part is for sure required before...
  15. Is Camera-Only in Rivian's Future? Testing How Rivian Uses Radars and Cameras

    Ha ha yeah the new software is definitely a lot more... Wandry/drunky for lane centering than before. But the team is well aware and I'm shut we'll see improvements on that front in the next update or two
  16. Is Camera-Only in Rivian's Future? Testing How Rivian Uses Radars and Cameras

    This stuff is a lot easier to show in a video, and it shows much more detail throughout the process. If you want to check that out, I uploaded under Thunder Volt on Youtube: Otherwise, if you'd rather read about it, you can stick with the written version :) A couple of weeks ago I posted...
  17. Finally — Apple Wallet Car Key is Activated!

    I'm hoping so as well. When they initially announced Gen 2 they said specifically iPhone and Pixels. (unfortunately Samsung has blocked car keys from working on Google wallet on their devices. You HAVE to use Samsung wallet for car keys. But Rivian hasn't mentioned support for that)
  18. Why 2025.26.30 update is a HUGE deal for Rivian Autonomy (Mobileye is dead)

    Haha thanks, Mike! (Great name, btw 😉) Glad I'm not the only one who loves digging into this stuff. Love sharing it with the community I agree! That would be so nice to at least expand the mapped roads. That said - you should look into comma.ai It's REALLY good. My buddy has it on his gen1
