Interesting thread. A bit dark to get decent photos of our R1s. My R1T has 72,000 miles with about 80% pad life remaining and smooth polished rotors front and rear. Our R1S has 31,000 miles with over 90 % pad life remaining and rotors that look new just like the R1T.

I did my Sodium Ion Ohmmu install about 10 days ago, pretty straight forward if you follow the video as the others had mentioned. I used a couple of o-ring picks on the sides of the OEM battery to lift them out as it was tight. A bit of gymnastics involved (I'm 6'2) in the frunk, otherwise simple.
You are right, there isn't anything really hard about it (not at this point in the game). They simply had other priorities when rushing to get the R2 released, so those items took a backseat. To me it is embarrassing and I have been part of the Rivian journey since Dec. 08. 2018.
Every once in a while we get a few lightly used JackPucks back in. These kits have usually been used 2–3 times, fully inspected, and are ready for another Rivian to take care of.
I’ve got few Magnetic Jack Puck complete kits w/ case available for $75 shipped anywhere in all 50 states. If you...
It can't be removed without factory service, if it is in a combination with a battery replacement. That is the exact question I asked service, and that is what they told me.
You can't reset the Replace 12V battery notification via the Ride Menu (not any longer). You can clear out any other codes, but I didn't have any codes thrown when I replaced mine with Sodium Ion.
I used the Ohmmu video for the install and had zero codes. The only challenge was the need for Rivian to reset the aforementioned notification. The 12V notification is new from a OTA's from a few months ago. Install is straight forward.
R1T ordered Dec. 8, 2018. Delivered Mar. 2022 (Vin 1750). Still have it and an R1S. R2 reserved day 1, hour 2. 12 miles from SC. We're waiting for LIDAR version, so we're not ordering now.
Agreed, the R2 itself looks like it can hit gross profit pretty quickly. But per RJ’s own comments, Rivian as a company won’t reach gross profitability until Georgia is up and running at real volume, which puts that timeline somewhere around 2029 (best case). If what RJ says is true, then they...
The issue is pretty straightforward. RJ said in Park City that Rivian won’t be gross-margin profitable until after the Georgia plant comes online, and that 160K+ units out of Normal isn’t enough to get them there. That’s the exact opposite of their earlier guidance claiming profitability in...
No, it is not available via RIDE. if you have That Notification it can only be removed by Rivian service. I had it done yesterday as I exhausted all other options.
I installed my two Ohmmu Sodium‑Ion batteries a couple of days ago. If you’ve got an active on‑screen notification like the one below, you’ll likely need Rivian to clear it. Hard resets won’t do it. I had mine reset this morning for $56.75.
Rivian will warranty the OEM lead‑acid battery for 2...
