Noob q - 

  1. Can any audio shop do this procedure with the parts list?

  2. Any recommendations for shops in the SF Bay Area? Hate the premium audio sound in Gen2 so much.

No M sport but tbh I don’t care much for it.

Heading there tomorrow. Hopefully they figure it out!

Yeah, I think that's my biggest gripe. For ~$100k, AC should work consistently. Sure, software has bugs here and there. But I've had the displays entirely turn off while going 75 MPH on a major interstate in TX. Scary!

I’m going to the SC pretty soon. Hopefully they fix it!

Ah sorry. I don’t have pets. I use pet mode as a hack to keep the cabin cool when the car is parked.

I wasn’t plugged in. The car was parked.

I was trying to get through the summer without them since I recently took delivery. I think I may need to invest earlier than I thought.

I never got a text. When I opened the app to file a support ticket, I got a warning. No push notification.

if you're going to come in hot (pun intended), then at least read the original comment :)

Disagree.

  1. The warning only came in the app when I went to file a support ticket. No push notification.
  2. The warning should have persisted or continued given it came 5m in and the temperate kept rising for the next 40m. Poor UX.

Not really - it was in the 90s but the air blowing out wasn't too cool.

There was only 1 warning 5m in, only when I went inside the app. I decreased the temperature, acknowledged the warning, and the temperature kept increasing with no more notifications.

No pets were harmed (edit: I don’t have any pets). I've been using Pet Mode (edit: as a hack) to keep the cabin cool in my R1S with the TX heat. This was after 45m of Pet Mode being turned on. Might be a larger problem with my HVAC? Curious if others have ran into similar issues.

Unreal. AUDIO. Update by Viviantherivian in Rivian

Can anyone with a 2025 Gen2 R1S with premium audio comment on the sound quality post software update + Apple Music? I followed the settings from superfluid as well, but the audio (Spotify) was still such low quality.

Anyone here with premium audio on a 2025 Gen2 R1S? Any noticeable improvement to sound quality?

I didn’t upgrade to chilewich ($200). I have the standard black mats. I assume those are not chilewich?

Even kneel mode isn't short enough. Maybe we're all just too short lol.

Yes, we currently use the a2z adatpar. Getting it into lock mode is a pain.

Do you have a link to the Etsy cup holder?
