Oddly, it now works fine! And I just switched my phone from connecting to my 5G WiFi to 2.4g WiFi. Also switched from all purpose to snow mode. But not sure why this would matter
I agree, the owl hoot is best update and love that sound! I actually got the toad to work but that is about the only part of the update that works. And spooky worked only the one time. Never again.
Same here… this update is massively buggy for gen1. Having more issues on top of spooky mode not working at all! It did work sort of…’once but was after a soft reset… and still was buggy. I was messing with WiFi to try to see if I could get it to work. And when I started to change WiFi settings...
Haha, I was going insane for a while and found out about this rattle too! The solution I did was fairly similar. But using the standard fabric tape that bmw uses for their panels to fit snug and rattle free. Just wrapping the edges and pins with this tape fixed it for me. It is suprising how...
I’m not really excited about this partnership to be honest. I despise Volkswagen products and seems this is a win for VW far more than it is for Rivian. However maybe Rivian had no choice but to take the money. I would have rather seen them partner with bmw to be honest.
I’m part of the
interesting! We are part of the 2023 registrations for bmw, rivian and Tesla and surprised it’s not more than this to be honest.
but it’s great to see this growth either way. Would hope to see much higher numbers. Especially once the r2 and r3 arrives. I’m for sure going to get...
Yes! I hope someone gets them an r1T soon!!!
I plan to buy the front row set for my R1T now and “hope” the rest will arrive in time.
I understand the front row “should” be same but other areas are most definitely not the same.
awesome! I really don’t hate on Tesla. I really liked the model 3 we had. And saved my life from a terrible accident too. Tesla is Uber efficient. The i4 m50 is NOT efficient with power but it’s not awful either. If you want more efficient than edrive40 is a better choice.
but I wanted the...
Go and take one on a test drive :)
fwiw, we had a model S. It was 2022 and fwiw it was sold quickly as it had a lot of problems. It was very uncomfortable as one issue and figure it is ok for taller people but I’m 5’9” and my wife is 5’4” and the seatbelt cuts our neck in the model S and had no...
Many things.
I love to drive the i4 more than any other EV I’ve owned. They comfort and quiet interior, dead silent motors too.
Feels faster than the R1T overall, especially at high way speeds.
the braking of the i4 is impressive and it does well in the snow with snow tires.
fwiw… we have two...
Not sure about this news. Maybe it’s taken out of context as a lot of news sources. As BMW already is successful with their i4, i5 and i7 and the Munich plant is going to be 100% electric and if that doesn’t say they are committed to electric cars than I don’t know what does. We own two i4’s and...
We have mutual of Enumclaw and pay a touch over 1000usd a year. It’s cheaper to insure than our two i4 m50’s too. Which are about 1300each a year.
we also have home insurance with them. But they are mostly just northwest coverage company. But worth considering.
Outside we get 4 bars of AT&T coverage, and inside the house 2-3 :)
Our home WiFi is 1Gb down and about 300-500Mb up. Not sure how this compares to the Rivian connection over att but would assume they have a limited basic plan since it is free.
I pay 20ish a month for our BMW i4 which has 5G...
not sure it matters, but I never really got updates very often or soon until my truck was allowed access to our home WiFi. I think Rivian allows those vehicles with WiFi priority vs those without WiFi as to save bandwidth of their own “free” network. And understand why as it is a huge update and...
I just commented on this,
For me it was dramatic. As before it was like stepping on a mushy pedal with no response. Like dead spot of 1/4-1/2 which is annoying and sloppy. Now it’s like 1/16-1/8th before car moves. Shocked you can’t tell. Maybe you are asking because you don’t have the update...
Yes same fuse and installed same. Other than how I routed the power wire I feel was much cleaner, it fits under dash all across the top and over the gauge above the steering wheel, and left side of dash directly down to the fuse panel.
anyhow, still doesn’t shut off, but will have to manually...
I’m not sure why, but mine doesn’t turn off ever….
And I have questions about the fuses. The video is not clear at all.
It doesn’t mention values or talk about the fuse holder having two spots…
I just assumed. But feels incorrect…
Kit came with red 10a fuse…
And installation said to remove the...
I love the pedal remap of this new update. Finally doesn’t feel like I’m pushing on a rubber chicken under my foot. It is better but I would say has a little room for improvement. Would like it to feel a little closer to a Tesla to be honest. More precise pedal feel, before this update the...
