It is just the way they are assembling M6s these days. Less lubricant means
less stuff to gum up the works and cheaper to build too. More lubricant
means you have to use it but you get a quieter camera. I use my camera and I
like it quiet. Having said all that, there is nothing "wrong" and if I send
it back, they will not change anything. That is why I will wait until the
warranty is over (actually a couple of months before so if anything is going
south...
