I would normally not care, because I'm not afraid the award miles will be incorrectly calculated but my problem tomorrow will be that I cannot access the lounge, as at YVR gold status is required.

Anyone have an idea what I can do about it and what caused this? Will they be able to issue boarding cards at the airport with correct status?
AFAIK the boarding pass shows your status at the time you booked the flight. So if I'm right, there is no way you can change the status on the boarding pass, but you better ask for a fax confirming your new status.

BTW, congratulations with your new status!
