I performed the first service on my new Pioneer a few nights ago. I was one of the lucky ones and had a very smooth shifting unit from when it was brand new. After changing the oil and filters it seems to shift much more clunky and loud. I’ve only ran it about 4 miles since doing the service. Will this smooth out after a few more miles or should I be concerned? Thanks in advance!

Probably, but that is backwards from the typical way it normally works.
Agree, Most quiten down after breakin.
You didnt say how many miles/hours you have.
Also, not that I am questioning your skills, Just so many of the following issues from people and dealers too for that matter.
You did drain both locations?
and DID NOT drain the sub-trans my mistake?
Also, change both filters or only 1?
Oil level good and using the proper check procedure?

Yes I drained from both locations and changed both filters. I added a little over 6 quarts of oil and ran for 5 minutes and waited 3 minutes to check level. The oil level was actually high so I removed a small amount to get the level right at the top hash mark on the dipstick. I'll have to check the hours, but I was right at 110 miles when i did the service.

Would having too much oil in the machine cause rough shifting?

I haven't heard about DCT shifting rough with too much oil but I have heard that it's hard to move the shift lever with too much oil in the sub trans so ya never know....

At 100 miles I changed both filters,engine and sub trans oil. I refilled with 10w-40 Honda oil and has got quieter ever since. Did you refill the sub transmission?
