Anyone having durability issues with their MP40s? I bought two of these things in April 2022 and in the 17 months that I have had them, I have had to replace two wet side spindles because the ceramic bearing breaks and the pump starts to rattle like crazy. To their credit, Ecotech has sent me free replacements for both of them but the last time, they were a little difficult about it. Unfortunately, I just had a third one break and I worry they won’t cover it. I clean them religiously every 4-6 weeks using citric acid and warm water. I don’t seem to have this same problem with the MP10 that I have.
Here is what a new one looks like:
And here is what they look like when they break:
