I loaded the rest of my .45 Colt bullets yesterday, so today I cleaned a couple of guns, a Stoeger double and a Uberti 1873 short rifle. The double went quickly, but the rifle took some time. While I had the rifle apart, I also took the mag spring and follower out. Uh-oh. I don't recall the last time I did that, but the stainless spring looked rusty. Ooops! I ran some patches through there with some G96 until it was clean and cleaned the spring. This should be done at least annually, so I must have skipped a year or so. I'll do some others tomorrow just to spread the joy around.

Hanging out at the dealership while they change the oil and rotate the tires. They have to check the transmission out too. It hesitates when gearing up and sheās still under warranty, soā¦ yeah, Iāll be here a couple of hours.

transmission probably needs to be reprogrammed, nothing much else....

Yeah, I didnāt think of that. The husband thinks maybe a tranny flush or maybe even a fuel filter thing. As long as they fix it, I donāt care

Well, they were able to replicate the hesitation and are going to do the transmission flush and replace the fluid. So now itāll be another hour. Better than doing the dance for another appointment.Yeah, I didnāt think of that. The husband thinks maybe a tranny flush or maybe even a fuel filter thing. As long as they fix it, I donāt care

Toyota has a sealed transmission, so not until 60,000, or up to 100,000
i think i will have the flush done when it hits 60,000 miles...even under the Toyota extended warranty, to pay like $400 will be money well spent, if with my crap luck, that extended warranty ends, and the troubles begin...
back in my wrenching days.....pull a trailer..??...every year
otherwise, every 2 years.....
and we did not have a flush machine back then, drop the pan, filter, refill...lots of old, dirty fluid in the torque converter never comes out that way, but it's what we had back then.

i thought you had a "brand new" car that was still under warranty, that's why i mentioned the re-programming, that many times is needed for some issues.

It was brand new in 2021. I appreciate the mention of reprogramming. It turns out that transmission flush is a āmaintenanceā thing and not covered by warranty. It is something that would have needed to be done sooner or later. If that doesnāt fix the issue, then it is on the warranty. Thank you though, for your advice. I will remember that reprogramming thing, trust me.

Zero the optic at 50 yards. You'll have an offset of about 1" out to about 200 yards where you'll be on again. In theory.
