"Newer" isn't necessarily "better".
Stick with what works. Unfortunately this is generally a run-to-fail model, but I can't stomach the thought of swapping out good quality parts that might have some life left on them with made-in-China crap substitutes that will likely fail in half the time of the original stuff.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If it is broke, try to fix it rather than replace it, because the newer thing you replace it with is virtually guaranteed to be of lesser quality.

+1... This is good advice.
