Maybe some dripped down into your ears when you were under there doing the fluid drain? That could make things quieter!

Speaking of becoming quieter, I changed the ATF and filter early this week (on the '91 300D) and could swear the car is quieter!

While I expect this when changing from fossil to synthetic engine oil, the change in sound level from fossil ATF to M1 ATF was unexpected.

Has anyone else experienced this (with the ATF change) or is it my imagination/wishful thinking?

I've NEVER noticed any change in sound. My transmissions don't make any detectable sound when the engine/driveline is properly supported by their rubber mounts and couplings, but the transmission does shift more smoothly - especially in cold weather.
