Hey all, long time reader but first time poster on SMF. Gotten some good recipes/techniques from this site!
Looking at buying a MES to replace my UDS, as I'm getting lazy and want to be able to 'set and forget.' I just read through all 28 pages on the thread about the new bluetooth MES, and learned that Gen 1 = good, Gen 2=bad, and Gen 2.5=decent.
Now my question is, how can I tell which model generation I'm looking at? Is the vent placement enough to differentiate what I'm looking at? I've seen the drip pan and side that the door hinge is on also being mentioned, but am not sure what varies between same-generation models and what changed between generations.
Any help is appreciated! (This is the one I've been looking at, specifically.)
