Ouch. Thanks for the warning. I was thinking more of running the new oil for N miles, then drain and refill. With synthetic that could get expensive.

Drive the car to get the transaxle oil warm.  Let it drain for an hour or two and then refill.  You'll be good.

Different oils can "leak" at different rates.  Monitor your oil level for a while to get an idea of what's up.
