I just replaced my starter motor on my N210 4Runner. What you're experiencing is identical - battery is fine, clicking + no start. I replaced a door actuator just prior and had disconnected the Negative on the battery as part of the door sensing sequence and it seemed to awaken my starter issue. I too had periodic starting to none.

Pros: fixed starting issue

Cons: periodic starting problems

Vehicle: Toyota 4runner

High temp plastic does turn brittle over time... plastic breaks manufacturers will tell you that the plastic is just as strong and wear resistant. But we all know its just to make shit cheaper.

Cons: plastic turns brittle, cheap manufacturing

Vehicle: Ford Focus
