Hi does anybody know if the starter motor for M is different to the rest of the 2.5 and 3.0 models. I'm getting conflicting information and prices.

Also has anyone changed one on the M.?

Thanks :thumbsup:
 
How old is your zm?
Do we have a thread that covers lifespan for m components?
My zed is approaching 10yrs so I'm half expecting some of the parts like starter/alternator etc to start going soon, would it be a reasonable comparison to look at e46m bits as a comparison?

Yeah I changed the starter motor and the ignition switch. Starter was about £75 and the ignition switch was about £20. Fitted them myself and it was quite easy. :thumbsup:

What are your symptoms Pete?

when the car gets hot the starter does not engage - if i take it out and it warms up then i can't risk turning it off and restarting it
