Has anyone get any reliability information on CVT's offered in vehicles?

RE: Continuously Variable Transmission

Here is some information on some of the type drives uses in vehicles. I think most of the manufacturers mentioned have worked on a vehicle transmission.  The only one I know of that had any success was made by a Dutch Company.

CVT is only new to the automotive world. They've been used for decades in Industry call PIV drives or "Posative infinately variable" drives
