I have a 2019 Shimano Metanium DC and it has been a great reel so far, I use it for Texas rigs mostly.... but after probably a month of using it when I was feeling it in it got feeling really Geary and dry to so oiled and greased it but it didn’t go away.... is there anything else I can do to fix this is or is it just a normal feel In a Shimano micro module system?

Need a gear replacement those 2015 DC and non DC reels are notorious for this happening. Something about the brass pinion gear mating with the aluminum main gear. Need a gear set from tackle trap gonna run you around 50-60$

One of the reasons Shimano went back to brass main gear for the new model

Yep! I've fixed at least 50 of these reels the exact problem.
