    How noisy is your front end?

    I'm actually in the same boat as computertom. Sold the quad R1T because of the suspension noise and every time I see one on the road (which is a lot in Colorado) makes me want to buy another. Appreciate the feedback about the DM being more solid and quiet. I will probably setup a demo drive...

    How noisy is your front end?

    Right!?! I sold mine because I couldn't stand the noises anymore.

    Rumor: New R1 from Feb getting upgraded suspension air compressor

    Yup agreed. I asked the guy in the original post (it's on FB) about the 12volt missing and he doesn't understand / know the difference between a center console and the dash lol.

    PSA: Careful Parking on ANY Incline...

    I'm sorry I disagree. While it would be awesome for Rivian to develop a way to lock all 4 wheels; this is not a "Rivian problem". My 4Runner is exactly the same way. Its RWD (unless I specifically put it in 4WD) and parking brake and "P" only locks the rear wheels. Same would be true with most...

    Rivian won't calibrate aftermarket wheels

    You are right, I put in 276 60 20 for some reason.

    Rivian won't calibrate aftermarket wheels

    Size difference is only -0.3% - are you sure they even have different algorithms for the different wheels?

    Salvage Rivan R1T on Copart - Canyon Red R1T Adventure Edition

    " Secondary Damage: BIOHAZARD/CHEMICAL" Isn't that usually listed if there's blood or signs of human remains?

    Rattles & Squeaks

    Sounds like the same sounds as in this thread: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/how-noisy-is-your-front-end.11748/

    How noisy is your front end?

    For it to not clunk! I'm really not sure where the "Trophy Truck inspired" thing comes from, I know someone posted about a service advisor saying this but Rivian never published anything of the like. Trophy trucks don't have air suspension, they have coil-overs with external reservoirs. They...

    How noisy is your front end?

    I wish it was something so simple as a mistake made during assembly, but the fact that it seems to be happening with most trucks, not to mention that you can even hear the sounds in the Long Way Up videos from some of the earliest builds indicates this is not a human error problem, but rather...

    How noisy is your front end?

    I am curious; everyone in this thread seems to be in a T. Anyone have any experience with these sounds on an S? I would assume it's the same but who knows...

    How noisy is your front end?

    Honestly, I didn't really pursue it much with them. The one time I had it in they said it was normal. I had opened a new ticket and over several phone calls with a service advisor they pretty much said yeah that's normal but bring it in and we'll take a look. I'm also not driving that much now...

    How noisy is your front end?

    That's pretty much exactly what I did; sold my truck Saturday and placed an order for a new one and hope by the time I take delivery that these things will be worked out.

    How noisy is your front end?

    This is different, this is the low speed creak that comes from the CV axle.

    How noisy is your front end?

    I'm certain there's variances... I have a buddy with one and his is definitely quieter. Not perfect, but better. And of course, there's always the human variance / factor... my wife doesn't hear anything :)

    How noisy is your front end?

    I could potentially help mask it but would we really want that? My 95 Cherokee with 180,000 miles and original suspension had a quieter and tighter suspension then my R1. I really think there's something with the design that needs to be improved. I have wondered if this is all related to that...

    How noisy is your front end?

    Yeah, not sure if it's just the sound of the wet that masks it or if the water its acting as a lubricant / barrier to whatever produces the sounds.

    How noisy is your front end?

    I've found that the sound is masked in the rain or when the streets are wet.
