The transmission fluid will not affect the operation as you described (it is 80w-90 gear oil). If you fill the final transmission using the fill bolt, you will fill it to the bottom of the bolt opening which is about even with bottom of the output shaft. Overfilling the transmission may result in some oil leaking out of the seals until the level drops. You said you sanded down your rollers, so I suspect they are worn and catching in the variator ramp. I suggest ordering 12g slider weights instead of rollers. They will react a little slower to engine speed changes, but will last much longer than roller weights.
