Has anyone else experienced this when switching to Motul 300? It seems like it's harder to shift the car, and also put it in gear from a stop. This was the first trans fluid change, and I did it at 23,xxx. Anyone else? I'm not sure I could have done anything wrong. The trans took around 2.5L of fluid. There was a fair amount of metal shavings on the drain plug, but nothing out of the normal for break-in.

Just curious if anyone else has seen negative effects from switching to Motul 300 or another aftermarket oil.
