Not to drag off topic, but the cvt may be the least of your problems, the electronics may work for now, but you can have a ton of problems in the future:

Flood damage may be hard to spot, but it can permeate the vehicle and cause ongoing problems for the rest of the car's service life. Flood damage can ruin electronics, contaminate lubricants, and threaten mechanical systems, often without leaving outward signs. It can take months for incipient corrosion to find its way to the car's computer systems or air-bag controllers.
Hope this helps:
