I had my CVT upgraded on the same day as the typhoon arrives and just managed to took it back and drove home before NO.8 was up.
Drove the car quite a bit over the weekend to try the CVT. Surprisingly found the car to still have the effect of shaking and rattling at about 1600-1700rpm. In the past, it was about 1300-1400 rpm that has the effect but afterwards it was silky smooth. Now I have to learn how to handle that jerking

The cars seems to be all new again and needs running in. I thought it is all software change and does it need any learning time? Now my exhaust seems to be louder again. And it seems a tiny bit of horsepower was gained.
I guess I'll need a few more weeks for both of us (me and the CVT) to get to know each other again!

Just booked in for another check on the near stall problem. Since yesterday, my car need a second start (the first start would stall).

YC, what software version did they put in for your car?
