No I don't. Actually we have replaced the transmission on this a few months ago and now it's running smoothly.

Not like me, I replaced the transmission and torque converter on mine a wee while back, was good for about 900 miles ago then the replacement is now packing up, so waiting to fit the second transmission and torque converter. It's suffering lock up :(

Maybe you fitted the wrong part number.
And also it's hard to find a transmission in good condition with low mileage the one we fitted costs 500 euro. And with service 150€ so it's 650€.
We also fitted one which wasn't good there was a dtc on the engine computer related to the transmission. When we clear it the car recover the full spins the tire on ground but after 2km the issue pop up again the we fitted the current one and it was so clean we opened the oil pan to check it.

Yes fitting used parts are always a gamble in the world or car repairs, most cars end up be broken for spares because they have a failed mechanical component. Always best to find a written off body damaged car to use as spares ;)
