The starter is a Bosch premium re-manufactured unit and tested good before I put it in.

After testing, 14.8 v at the starter when cranking is better than the .7 volt drop before! and now there's no battery drain!

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.

these are remanufactured VW/Bosch parts redistributed by autozone. IMPORTANT!!! the whole job took me aboiut 3 hrs....cause i'm a newby VW garage mechanic, but it went off/on with no issues really. she starts better than ever. the starter is smooth as hell.

The starter is a rebuilt BOSCH which I stated above.

Go for the reman Bosch. They should call it Neverlast or Durajunk
