I had a similar chat with John at Mackies about these boxes and he, as with you, told me that there isn't a generic problem with 5HP24 boxes and they do see high mileage boxes - maybe that's probably because the ones they do get them in for servicing are the ones which last and you may be right that unserviced, failed boxes don't get taken in for repair..
