Haha, yeah, it took me some time just to find the damn thing...

That receipt is the only one I can't find If your toyota dealer can't help you either, I'll look into it...

How is it possible that you have to fix your starter that often? That part doesnt even look like it's supposed to wear with use.
The only thing I ever had fixed on my starter were the bearings and it works perfectly..(it's not the same type though, mine has no reduction).

[Jan Pedersen]

This is the first time I ever fixed the starter... And you are right - it is proberply not necessary changing more than the two little thingies But they will ware out eventually. As you see one of them has a deep grove which is why it isn't always working:

nice stuff Jan.

what are you calculating the total costs `?

[Jan Pedersen]

I'm not sure yet, Kristian, but I guess €6500-8000, depending on which engine I choose, wouldn't be way off...

[Ivan141]

As far as I know the only parts that normally wear in a starter are the bearings and carbon brushes. Maybe your bearings are worn out causing other stuff to wear out as well?

Small update: Car is now ready to be sanded down some time next week. Removed the entire wiring and sounddamping on the inside of the car... Heres a few pics:

And a pic before droping of the car:


This is quite nerve wrecking since I don't know how much will be left afterwards I'll keep you posted

BTW am I the only one who keep finding more and more rust every time I look the car over?!?
