Starter motor Denso or OEM FORD

I went with Denso from Advanced Auto last year. So far no issues and very nice quick starts

Denso would be the one I would want on a Lexus.

The Denso remanufactured unit is perfectly ok!

Given the price, I bought the reman Denso from Rockauto and replaced it myself.

I’d only use OE Honda or Denso branded. I used a Denso that ordered from Rock Auto.

I replaced my starter 3 times in 9 months on my rsx.

1. Buy new. I got 2 reman densos that failed within 1 month. Cheap WAI off Amazon was cheaper and new, and it's still working after 6 mo.

Get a Denso starter and you will not have to change it again throughout your ownership of the vehicle.

I assumed my starter was going out so I replaced it with a new Denso one and it fixed the issue for maybe two weeks. After that it started to not crank first try and would take a while, now it’s almost every time I start it, it takes a while. I hear the starter spin and click every time so I assume it’s just not engaging the flywheel.

I'm having a similar issue. Only hear a click when I push the ignition, the starter motor doesn't spin. I replaced the starter with a Denso remanufactured, getting the same problem. I bench tested and verified the remanufactured one spins.

My issues with no crank no start was my starter. it would start intermittently, but then at times just click. I bought a reman denso and swore it wasn't the starter swapped in a new clutch switch. Swapped the starter out for another reman denso. Swapped in a new immobilizer. Kept swearing it wasn't the starter. Just put in 2. Took it to the dealer; of coursr, the RSX ran fine all the times they tried driving it. Finally bought a WAI starter off Amazon. It was the stupid denso. Normally, denso are good. Not so here.
