Re: I have tested mine again and

Ok i just tried mine with electronic shutter and mechanical no perceivable difference other than the clunk of the mechanical shutter which will remind me to put it back to auto mode that shutter is loud ,you can feel a little (pulse/hum) from the battery grip when shooting which as some one pointed out is the ibis working ,but other than that ok a little bit different from my omd em1 .2  that i have been using the frame rate and intervals is really slow and obvious ,still the gx8 and 40-150mm is gorgeous combination .

I take it all your firmware is currently up to date just after the repair it may still be v1.0

Hope you can resolve your issue i would take it in to reputable store and get them evaluated try another gx8 body and a olympus 40-150mm swap with your lens camera combo .

To find out if it is body or lens issue .
