Exclamation 48k Miles Changing my ATF Tomorrow

im at 48k now didnt change my tranny fluid yet im not sure if its all in my head or what but when im driving i notice sometimes my rpms are held up high for a little before it will shift and can be a little jumpy sometimes or not as smooth as i would like. not sure if its just the type of engine we have or what. rpms seem to get a little to high for what my throttle is but thats very subjective i know... . almost like the tranny doesnt catch the gear quick enough
only was weird around 42k

could be all in my head

did you notice this in your AT twin at all? and maybe the changing of fluid will help with the smoothness of it. alot of people change their AT Fluid at 30k but the manual says 60
maybe im just late on the change and the fluid is shit
i dont track just run it hard while driving 40% of the time

How are you planning on getting all the old fluid out?? I plan on doing this soon myself (but not with motul) and im only at 40k km's. To my understanding you can only get a small amount out that is why the interval shortens after the first change.
