I got the firmware update for the CVT recall/service thing. I can confirm that the cruise control still revs high when going down a hill, even with adaptive CC disabled. I’m thinking the ECU might be trying to downshift, but cannot since it’s a CVT, so it just ends up reving high.

Yea, I have to correct my original statement as well. The shift points are still present, seems like I have to push the car a lot more to notice them now though.

Same issue with me. I just received the ECU CVT update but haven’t tested it yet to see if it still does it.

I believe you are correct for the L, LE and XLE models. The SE and XSE models have separate DRLs locates under the headlights. The look like they should be fog lights but operate strictly as DRLs.

I tend to drive my Corolla fairly hard and have the SE (I think they have more exaggerated shift points), not sure if that makes any difference. But I’ll tell you before I took it in, it was much much more jerky than it is now.

Actually read through all your posts and decided to get my ECU updated today, with the hopes that it eliminates the fake shift points. I just made an account on here to share my experience. I can say that it severely cut/eliminated most shift points. The CVT seems a lot more peppy and quick...
