How did you "change" the fluid? The ONLY way to come close to a complete "change" of the transmission fluid in these transmissions is to do a 3x drain and fill from the pan. A single drain & fill gets less than one third of the fluid out.
Warm up car by driving, use all gears (while at idle put the trans in each gear for 20-30 seconds once warm)
Drain pan, replace plug
fill
repeat 2 more times.
DO NOT EVER use any shop or service that purports to "flush" your transmission. You will regret it.
Also, do NOT put any additives into the transmission. If the specified fluid isn't doing the job, there is something wrong that needs taking care of. Don't mess things up further with additives.
MAKE SURE you are using the right fluid in the transmission! Your transmission should take the 3309 type, not any sort of Dexron...
