Is this an acceptable fan noise in an R2? Thoughts 🔊🔉🔊?

What am I suppose to be hearing?

Just enjoy your car or sell it for crying out loud.

You understand the reason I share these types of things is to make the vehicle better right?

You should start the video with the AC Off and then turn it on to understand the noise

I’m going to see what service says and depending on how that goes make a deeper dive video

I hear it, that will drive some people 🦇

Thats why ICE V8 engines are undefeated: you can’t hear anything else!

I have a noise even when my fans are off! It’s really getting on my nerves

Keep us posted on the service ticket, I have one open too

I'm baffled by what you're trying to illustrate here. Is the noise after you hit "sync", before, or both?

I heard it. That’s a fan noise. I’m okay with air noise, but this sounds like non laminar flow interacting with the housing at certain RPM’s.

I’d put in a service ticket

Ticket is in

Picked up today and have the same issue! Climate off, car on sitting idle.

Almost sounds like an engine idling lol. I really wanna buy an R3X but Rivian needs to get it together. I’ve seen way too many people complain about this problem with the hvac shutter. It’s a great looking car but problems like these will keep people away

It kind of does lol

Literally just White noise, you’ve got nothing

Rivian will go out of business anyway so does it really matter for

That's a very odd noise, almost like it's sucking on water? lol

Puttering…

I wonder if Rivian has a solution for it yet

Wish they'd publish the manuals, service bulletins and fix steps for every issue like Tesla does for everyone to see.

Are you referring to the intermittent "hiss" sound in this clip?

It’s the fan making a puttering type noise

For a farm tractor yes, but not for a premium SUV.

Turn auto off

Still does it
