On the MQF1656TEW the usual complaints trace back to the defrost drain, door seal or cold control, not to the sealed or drive system behind it. Reading the plate first avoids the common problem of a part that fits the family but not the build.
seal cleaning, defrosting where required and keeping the drain clear is the sensible limit for an owner here; work carried out by somebody who is not an authorized technician can affect what the warranty still covers.
