Vrs starter motor swap !

Featured Replies

My Starter Motor is playing up on the Vrs..

So im going to swap it out tomorrow ... is it much of a job in Situ ?

Just had a quick peek from above & cannot tell how many bolts hold it on ? I take it that it can be withdrawn whilst the engine is in the Car :giggle: & that there is room for access, It does look a little tight, I don't really want to remove my battery & battery case as it's not on the best of fettle (The case) & will probably fall to pieces :D But will remove the airbox & PD160 intake etc for more room..

Should of blinkin swapped it when the flywheel was done ....

Cheers

Hi Dean,

Had a problem with the starter on our fabia vrs.

Some times it would start some times would not emoticon-0114-dull.gif.

From what i can mind air box needs to come out, battery needs to come out to.

When all is removed you will get to the starter and see every thing.

Think it is 2 bolts from top and you will need to jack it up 1 bolt from underneath ( i think ).

Check the wire from solenoid our 1 was broken that was the problem emoticon-0144-nod.gif .

Not a bad job too do about 30min.

Hope that helps.

Trev.
