Has anyone else experienced this (with the ATF change) or is it my

Imagination but who cares. Now you can go much longer between ATF changes!
You must NOT push the change interval when using Mobil 1 ATF. You need
to change the fluid/filter at about the same interval as part of the
purpose of the ATF/filter change is to remove the friction material
debris (that will clog the filter). Even conventional ATF is seldom
"worn out" when a change is required although it may be damaged or
contaminated.
The advantage of M-1 ATF is the much smoother shifting (and resulting
longer friction material life) and more viscosity consistency with
respect to temperature.
