The transmission constantly learns and adjusts. For some driving styles, it seems like it picks suboptimal profiles. Standstill adaptation, in my understanding, resets the learned data and replaces it with some "known good" values appropriate for your transmission. Having that said, it doesn't mean it stops learning once it's complete. So, that's likely why the dealer called it a "band aid" that lasts 1-2k miles, unless you adjust your driving style.
As for using Xentry outside of a proper shop (dealers or independents who pay for the license), keep in mind, you're using cracked software, potentially modified VCI firmware, likely on a Chinese hardware clone. If something gets messed up while you're doing it on an in-warranty car, you may end up paying for your repairs.

This must be a new function available to the 9-speeds. It's the first I have seen and explains what IPR means. Selecting Customer Complaint and selecting Continue, you get a notice that an enhanced online version is available. Selecting Continue again lets you select the complaints. It then takes you to the online model, which is where I cannot proceed.

Hmmm, interesting perspective since the "band-aid" is a coded procedure in XENTRY. It will be interesting to see if that is the experience others will have. Honestly, if that fixes shifting for a few thousand miles, it would definitely be worth getting XENTRY and doing it yourself as needed.
