    Community NVH Thread - Share your fixes for noises, rattles, clunks, squeaks

    I asked then to fix both...the SC said they put something in, but they either forgot or put it in the wrong place. I can actually see the dash grill getting rowdy right in the middle when I hit an expansion joint and it sings me it's harsh vibratory song. The wood to the left of the steering...

    Community NVH Thread - Share your fixes for noises, rattles, clunks, squeaks

    My flashlight rattled - I cut a strip of adhesive-backed hook/loop (soft half) and wrapped it and the flashlight to cushion it. Other than that, I have 2 dash rattles that drive be bonkers. One is the wood trim by the driver's vent. It's subtle and sporadic, but I'm not about to try and pry...

    PSA don't let stuff grow inside your washer fluid reservoir

    Thaaaaats not the reservoir. I think that lid says something about being pressurized and is related to coolant. Mine is an opaque plastic reservoir that you can only see when you remove the front trunk tub. Image credit @redantpile... I hope you don't mind. I didn't take my own photo

    PSA don't let stuff grow inside your washer fluid reservoir

    Lol reverse osmosis filtered water. My Rosie is a diva. A bougie girl. Maybe if I used regular tap, the chlorine would help, but then I'd have hard water stains everywhere. The city supply in Tucson is no joke...

    Rivian service every bit as bad as people say

    I know this pain. Yeah that's a bag of wtf This has been my experience with the call center. The actual SC folks have been pretty stellar for me. I've had some frustrations, myself, but they definitely did the leg work to get there, in the end.

    Rivian service every bit as bad as people say

    So when you went to pick it up and you say "hey you didn't fix the problem, go ahead and do that, please," they said "no we didn't see it and we're kicking this vehicle out of here and it's your problem kthxbye?" This sucks and all but I've only experienced the SC people willing to work with me...

    PSA don't let stuff grow inside your washer fluid reservoir

    Eh, the Rivian issue here is that you can't just take the bottle out. You have to go in through the wheel well and take the bumper off to get the reservoir out. I imagine that would be a less than desirable labor fee The fluid, itself, didn't cause the problem. Just the fact that it wasn't a...

    PSA don't let stuff grow inside your washer fluid reservoir

    I was using a non-addictive washer fluid so I tried to fix it by adding caffeine... But seriously, the Internet appears to agree that some sort of alcohol mix in the washer fluid prevents algae and such. Very scientific. I ordered the OE stuff, though, and learned I can still bend over enough...

    PSA don't let stuff grow inside your washer fluid reservoir

    Simple, give it a job at Google on their autocorrect team. They give it for free.

    PSA don't let stuff grow inside your washer fluid reservoir

    One of my nozzles got clogged a while back. Mobile service came out and ended up blowing out the line - problem fixed (or so I thought) The flow gradually decreased, making me wonder if my R1T had an enlarged prostate. Eventually the stream failed to clear the top of the wipers. So I called...

    Magnet fasteners for plastic panel

    A long shot, but has anyone lost a magnet fastener from the plastic panel that pops off at the nose of the vehicle on front of the front trunk tub AND managed to find a replacement? One of mine disappeared and I'm not sure how, but if anyone's found a way to get one... I'm curious

    2025 4Runner Photos & Specs Leaked

    I'm so sick of the trend to make the most ostentatious look-at-me-mobiles. It's like the uglier they are the less manufacturers care because it's still generating talk. Between the Lexus design language, the BMW pig snout, and Toyota's exaggerated plastic toys, I don't know why people bother...

    New R1S Issues Day 1

    My rear passenger interior lights go into exorcist mode on washboard roads, sometimes.... SC couldn't find a problem I guess my trucks version of getting excited for adventure. But the lights I find interesting - I have auto high beams turned on, but my wife likes to turn them off when she...

    Self park feature?

    This reminds me of a silly story, but I want to preface this with the hope that it's received with humor instead of unconstructive ill will toward your wife. I'm supportive of the technology Tesla's developing despite the fact that they're just not for me. I think your wife should get a Tesla...

    The Art of Not Sounding Pathetic While Sounding Pathetic

    I just put it back in the same shape... Strap and all. Never had an issue. Hasn't everyone coiled a wire/hose/extension cable at some point? Sure, it's tight and it takes a few moments to do, but for me it goes right back in the same way it came out

    Well, guess it was my turn. Hit by a red light runner.

    Looks like passenger side is up on a curb

    would you buy R1T again as of 3/25/2024?

    - would buy again, no regrets. But I didn't think I would have at the current pricing. I was only able to rationalize preorder pricing for our family. 300 mi range is enough to alleviate anxiety (mostly). We don't have an abundance of chargers where we're at in Southern Arizona and we still are...
