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 she’s still under warranty, so… yeah, I’ll be here a couple of hours.

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

Yeah, I didn’t think of that. The husband thinks maybe a tranny flush or maybe even a fuel filter thing. As long as they fix it, I don’t care

Well, they were able to replicate the hesitation and are going to do the transmission flush and replace the fluid. So now it’ll be another hour. Better than doing the dance for another appointment.Yeah, I didn’t think of that. The husband thinks maybe a tranny flush or maybe even a fuel filter thing. As long as they fix it, I don’t care

Most newer cars require a transmission fluid exchange at 30000 miles now. If its close to that milage that might be the issue

Well then. She did good up to 60K.

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.

Unpacking my recent order from SGAmmo.

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

The husband just got home. We are going up north to his cousin’s land to prep the deer stands and do some shooting. I haven’t shot my AR yet. Well, he comes in with a Scheels bag and gives it to me. Happy birthday, he says, and gives it to me…
My birthday isn’t until December, but hey, I’ll run with it!

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.

Having my morning cup. My Jarhead buddies are coming over about 8 and we'll head to the range. I won't get to play with them too much, I'm on a mission to sight in a couple scopes on a couple old .22 rifles. Old guy shite.
