New 2014 DLX downshift issues

The best way to avoid it is to quit trying to down shift all the gears at once while stopped. Down shift as you are rolling, using the engine to help slow you down. It's better on the trans ( gears mesh better when they are moving) and it's better on the brakes.

Blipping the throttle between each gear will ease the downshifting, make a cool sound between your legs and your tranny will thank you for many years. Mine is shifting very smooth at 1200 miles on 10w40 (@ 1000 miles) semi synth in hot temp today(85 heavy city traffic).
