How much more effective is the gear reduction starter compared to using a MK3 starter? I'm running a mk3 8v starter in my '80 scirocco and absolutely love it. Much more effective.
Through our new supplier we are able to RETAIL the starter motor for $190 CAD + HST. Something to consider for any of you looking for a starter motor for a catepillar or Bentley continental GT.
In all of my cars, I have always done it. '92 BMW 325i, and my '97 GTI. It is something that I feel should be done as others have said, makes it easier on the starter, I shut it off when I am pulling into my parking spot. I just turn the fans off.
yeah its a pretty common thing, i my self have replaced 4 or 5 of them... do yourself a favor, go to autozone and get the duralast one. they're the same thing as the bosch and have a lifetime warranty. oh and that hasnt been the duralast ive had to replace that much, ive only had to replace it once.
Yes - works great, spins the engine so easy. And no stupid bearing to mess with to boot.
This thing turns it over very easily - good move. Old vs. New: The new one is a little longer, but my car has never started so easily.
One replacement Bosch starter later and it fired up almost immediately.
The starter is a rebuilt BOSCH which I stated above.
i had a durasuck crap out on me after 4 days, replacement one covered under the "warrenty" did the same thing. get a bosch
Go for the reman Bosch. They should call it Neverlast or Durajunk
