Starter R & R: 2 questions
2004 R53, 155K. Undergoing a comprehensive DIY refresh. Considering replacing the starter. Two questions:
(1) I have reviewed various videos on starter removal. Currently my passenger-side axle is out. Should that make starter removal easier?
(2) I have experience with Denso starters in other cars. The only parts that fail in them are the solenoid contacts which can easily be replaced and cost $7.00. What about Mini OE starters which are typically Bosch?
Thanks.
