Also - is there a portion of MPE owners that have had next to zero issues with their BT controller or is it just a given they all play up (some more than others)?
All I can say is that in 2.5 years of owning the MPE I have not had an issue with the BT controller not working or the valves closing on their own.

The only "issue" I have is that the battery in the controller dies once a year for me. Which I attribute to leaving it in my car and the summer heat killing it.
Thanks - that's good to hear that some like yourself have had no issues at all with the BT controller.
It has started to make me think it could have been a defective batch or possible improvements were made to a revised version (believe changes were made to the drainage and for the cold start rattle).

Do you know if you have a revised version of the exhaust? Ie did you ever have the cold start rattle or can you see you've now got the drainage hole in the muffler?
