I would not mess with CVT's. They are all crap and are ready to die at any moment.

Mini says they can reprogram but there a risk when updating the new software. So like the service department said I can lose the tranny Any suggestions Thanks

Well it shifts very good, my concern is when it accelerates from stop it hesitates or pauses 1-2 seconds then it engages and no further issues. Maybe the near future trade in or sell it's driving me nuts!

All I can say is good luck. CVT's are just not ready for prime time.
