"New and Improved" isn't necessarily improved!
Maybe it's just Asics then... Anyway, to answer your original question, if the shoe feels noticeably different then yes, it could certainly cause you problems. Anything that feels different can subtly change your mechanics and that could cause the symptoms you described. I've had some discomfort in my right foot for some months now, and it's not that bad, but it's caused subtle changes in my mechanics that in turn are making it tough on my right achilles tendon. Not shoe-related (I think) but the same principle applies. Or it could be entirely unrelated. Sorry.
