I was/am considering doing the same flush/screen work (on Audi and crewcab),
but was advised by a friendly (but British car) mechanic that all new ATF
will clean out the clutch packs too well and they will then slip.  Also...
there is a gear pump inside the trans to power the pistons/actuators that
work the brake bands for controlling shift.  Maybe something is 'too clean'
in there now? Now a lower pump pressure?  I think the bands are adjustable
somehow.  Did you put in synthetic ATF? Please post your responses to
me/list? thanks, Tim
