The most common problem with MXs is the meter switch either not activating at all or coming on when you don't want it to (thus draining the battery). It's usually a very simple adjustment to fix it. The next most common problem I've seen is a mis-aligned shutter-speed indicator dial in the viewfinder. Takes a bit of disassembly to get to it (you have to remove the top plate of the camera) but pretty easy to re-calibrate it when you do so.
